YOUR SHOW TASKS, DUE DATES, CONSIGNMENT & DETAILS

YOUR EXHIBIT SPACE

The space for our Mini Shows is our "Featured Artist Area" which is the most street facing front area and contains the roll up garage door. It does not include the entirety of the main showroom area.

See the floor plan section below for additional details

FLOOR PLANS

THE FEATURED ARTIST SPACE

As can be seen in the photo above as well as the floorplan there are four broadway style wall flats attached to the walls. These are the primary walls for hanging artworks. Each of these wall flats is 8 ft tall and 12 ft wide. The walls for the office area (small room at the top left of floor plan) are 8ft tall as well.

The remaining walls are structural and just under 12 ft tall if that height is of importance for any installation or mural work.

Keep in mind this floor plan does not include the area for drink & merch sales. We prefer to go over that layout with you when meeting in person in the space.

TASK DETAILS

We find it most convenient to share a folder in google drive that includes folders for each of the tasks where everything is stored for easy by both us and you.

1-SHOW FLYER/ADS:

Typically this requires you to conceive of two things first and foremost for your show.

1. The Title for your show.
2. The theme, if there is one. It is not necessary to have a theme yet we generally advise that you have one as it assists with a more cohesive showcase. The theme does not have to be anything unique; observing and utilizing a theme or phase that you are in with your daily life whilst creating tends to be all you need.
