Art in America has been a staple of the art world since its founding in 1913, offering deep dives into exhibitions and artist profiles. Maybe you subscribed to feel in-the-know, but now you're just tired of seeing another article debating whether a banana taped to a wall is really art. With subscription costs ranging from $60 to $75, canceling can save you up to $75 a year. This guide covers how to cancel directly from your desktop. It's one of those classic subscription models where they make it super easy to sign up with a big discount but a little more obscure to actually stop the payments from hitting your card every year.
How to Cancel Art in America Subscription on Desktop
Canceling your Art in America subscription is done through their online customer service portal. It feels a bit dated, but it works. You'll need your account number from the magazine label, so have that ready.
1 Go to the Customer Service Website
First, you need to head over to the Art in America customer service page. It's not on their main homepage, which can be a little confusing. It's a separate portal for managing subscriptions.
2 Log In to Your Account
This is the annoying part. You'll need your account number, which is printed on your magazine's mailing label. If you can't find it, you can also try logging in with your name and address. I had to try the address option twice before it found my account.
3 Find the Cancellation Section
Once you're in, look for a link or button that says something like 'Cancel Subscription' or 'Payment Options'. It's often buried under 'Manage Your Account'. They don't make it obvious.
4 Confirm Your Cancellation
Follow the on-screen instructions. They will probably offer you a special discount to keep your subscription. Just ignore it and proceed with the cancellation. You have to be firm and click the final confirmation button.
5 Get a Confirmation
After you confirm, you should see a message on the screen and get an email. Do not close the page without getting that confirmation. Save the email as proof, just in case you need it later.
Cancel Art in America Subscription with phone
If you'd rather talk to a person, you can call their subscription services. Phone Number: (800) 925-8059. Hours are typically standard business hours, Monday to Friday. Be prepared for a potential wait time and have your account information ready.
Cancel Art in America Subscription with email
You can also send an email to their customer service team. Email Address: [email protected]. Make sure to include your full name, address, and account number in the email. Expect a response within 2-3 business days.
Before you cancel, know that Art in America typically does not offer prorated refunds. When you cancel, you are stopping the subscription from auto-renewing. You will likely continue to receive any remaining issues you've already paid for. Your personal data isn't deleted, they just mark your subscription as inactive.
