Information for Artists…
Contact Us to reserve your month.
We have 1 accent wall that’s outfitted with a professional hanging system so that we have complete freedom vertically and horizontally. Featured artists get the whole wall for the month, and may hang as many items as they would like. Pornographic art is not allowed (we are a family friendly environment) though tasteful nudity is acceptable (we’re not prudes).
The 1st Thursday of the month is your “opening night reception” and we will announce it on our website and social media. Artists are also encouraged to promote the event through friends, family, social mediate, etc. Many artists enjoy interacting with guests and introducing their work that night, and some even bring snacks to attract more attention. the “opening night reception” can be as grand or low key as you want it to be, though we have seen that artists who bring larger crowds generally sell multiple pieces that first night.
At the end of the month, we are happy to retain 2-5 pieces of your work to continue to offer them for sale.
We ask for a 10% commission on your sales, 100% of which goes back into our art program (buying new hanging equipment, paint the walls, etc.).
