GALLERY AF MINI'S

SHOW DETAILS

THE SHOW

The Gallery AF Mini Art Shows provide Artists & Curators with the opportunity to utilize our smaller exhibiting space to showcase themselves via a solo show or a small group show. Its a chance to work alongside Gallery AF, gain our insight & expertise as well as our audience.

THE EXHIBIT SPACE

Located directly off of Olympic Blvd. our mini show space opens directly to the street, allowing onlookers to view into the exhibit, creating a bit of a spectacle. The exhibit area is approximately 33.5' long / deep x 14' wide with 12' ceilings. This area includes 1 unisex bathroom as well as a merchandise area and bar set up, which are provided and maintained by Gallery AF.

THE LAYOUT

As can be seen in our photos we offer a number of different layout options for the display walls, installation, merch and drinks. The 2 set ups we have displayed in our photos are just examples of different layouts. Our primary goal is to assist you in choosing a layout that works best for your needs.

COSTS

We work with artists & curators for fee & commission structuring in a variety of ways. This allows you to make the choice that is best for you without it limiting your capacity to throw an amazing event. It is our objective to reduce the up-front costs that often come with renting, setting up and promoting an art show. We assist in making it possible.
