Artists Rights Society (ARS) operates as a copyright, licensing, and monitoring organization for visual artists in the United States. Founded in 1987 and based in New York City, New York, it leverages more than three decades of experience and a global collective of roughly 122,000 artists to help protect and monetize artworks and to support collaborations. The organization sits within the legal services sector, providing rights management support as works move through licensing processes and exhibitions.

Its primary clients are visual artists seeking IP protection and licensing support, along with institutions and other partners involved in producing or presenting art. ARS positions itself as an intermediary that helps artists navigate evolving rights considerations in a changing digital landscape. In 2022, ARS announced the launch of Arsnl, a digital platform to guide artists and institutions through blockchain-based projects, starting with an NFT drop of 2,200 unique NFTs created by Frank Stella.
