Beyond Traditional Memorials:

Celebrating Creative Talent

While traditional memorial sites focus on commemorating an individual, we shine a light on their creative talent. Each artist has a personalized page featuring their art, music or literary works. We acknowledge the personal and subjective nature of all art, therefore we welcome every submission without judgment or curation, regardless of age or background.

I want my voice heard. In the end that's all people want. -Ethan Magder (1989 - 2017)

How The Artist Lives Started

Following the loss of her son Ethan, Andrea Magder discovered his unpublished song lyrics, essays, and the beginning of a novel. In conversations with others, she realized that many people inherit paintings, music, and literary works after a loved one passes. The thought that their work would one day be forgotten was difficult to process and became the inspiration behind The Artist Lives Gallery.
