MNArtists.org
I have recently discovered a site for Minnesota artists called MNArtist.org. It is pretty neat. If you are from Minnesota you can sign up and have a free artist homepage and show your art in a collection. It's really nice too because people can go to the site and search for a specific artist, or they can search for a specific kind of art. I also have the option of listing my Etsy store on my page (which I did). They also have articles, they have a blog, they have a calendar for events, and they also have news and opportunities for locals. The way I found out about the site is actually kind of interesting. My landlord was one of the people who started this site and in the garage my fiance found t-shirts, buttons, bookmarks, and stickers promoting the website. Instead of just letting the items sit in her garage and collect dust I decided I would sign up for the site and continue supporting it and promoting it. I have worn some of the t-shirts, and I have started to send out the bookmarks in my swap packages (I swap on Swap-bot) and on every envelope I send out I now place one of the stickers on the outside so more people will be able to learn about this useful, and unique website that helps support local Minnesota artists.

Hi Kelly -
Just stopping in from Swap-Bot : )
You're right . . . http://mnartists.org/ is a great site for promoting art on a state level. I'll have to look around to see if there is a similar site for Pennsylvanians.
