Community Groups




Make sure to check out these wonderful community-oriented groups! There's lots you can do here, so don't miss out! :dummy:



  • ComeTogetherProject is all about encouraging community. Their goal is to bring the community directly to the members, in an attempt to inspire members to be a more active part of the community. With our focus on the "spread the love" concept, we encourage promotion, features, compliments, constructive feedback, random acts of kindness, reviews, support, and above all a strong sense of community. Now hiring here.


  • deviant365 deviantART's official 365 Project where you will be provided with weekly tasks for the whole year. The aim of this is to give you motivation to participate in areas of our community that perhaps you have never experienced before, make new friends, work on your art, learn more about deviantART and enhance your experience on deviantART.


  • BurdenedHearts This group aims to focus on uniting people and encouraging them to support each other through life. We will actively encourage members to share their stories and talk to each other to make new friends, we will discuss important issues that may affect our members and we will accept all artworks that deal with an emotional issue. This is not limited to mental health issues, and the group is open to anyone.


  • ProjectPositivity A group dedicated to encouraging positive self image within our artists community. A worthwhile community that everyone should try.

  • DArtschool is looking for some mentors and teachers who would be able to help other deviants improve. Sign up for a position here.


  • GimmeFeedback Our concept is simple: You give people critiques, they give you critiques. Come join us if you're looking for meaningful and constructive comments!


  • ProjectComment #ProjectComment is a Group of many projects centered around comments, but, more importantly, constructive comments. We offer Members of deviantART a lot of opportunities to get comments, give comments, participate in comment projects, win points, get featured and much, much more.


  • projecteducate Every week, the project brings you a new set of articles with information, tips, and tricks about one of the many galleries on deviantART. Every month, we also have a Community Week built into the schedule, where everyone in the community has a chance to submit an article to share. See the Schedule and check out the Community Week Guidelines if you'd like to contribute.
