I visited Paula of On Track Gallery today and they are open to us for the same opening weekend as we originally planned. It's right next to the Kosmos gallery on 5th and Aspen.
It has 1000 sq ft. of hanging space and really really nice track lighting so we wouldn't have to worry about that anymore.
Here's the catch though... They want $450 for the weekends of the 2nd and 3rd and the following weekend of the 9th and 10th. They also charge 25% commission on any work we sell. I personally think that we could fit everyone in the space but it will be a little tight. And there are additional hanging walls as seen in the picture and they have access to more if we'd like to use them. I think we should go for this space due to the situation we're in and something like this could disappear soon due to how busy December can be.
Looks great. Lets do it.
ReplyDeleteTell them we can't afford to spend that much! Ask them if we can do it for fewer days. Tell them we are a class, not a commercial entity. See if they will help us because this is about education, not profit. Gallery looks great. Price is ridiculously HIGH!!
ReplyDeleteThe space is soo nice! The price is high though. I feel like we might have some leverage cause I don't think anyone else is going to rent the space on such short notice. Even if they don't come down on price I think we should do it. That is only about $40 a person and if we dont need lighting it might be one of our only expenses(not including our personal framing). Im excited again. :-)
ReplyDeleteI asked about coming down on the price and they seemed pretty firm on it but i think with a little more talk we could get them to take it down.
