Consignor
We accept a wide selection of quality work from Pioneer Valley artists. A committee of gallery members reviews requests for participation from interested artists and crafts people. The committee determines the acceptance of new work based on space available, display considerations and the quality of the work. Our goal is to have a diverse selection of work, in a variety of media, with a range of price points. There is no deadline to apply, consignors are accepted on a rolling basis.
Standard Consignor - Our standard consignor artists are displayed long term and pay 40% of all sales to the gallery.
Skincare Consignor - We have space for 3 skincare consignors who share a display together and pay a monthly rent of $25, plus pay 20% of all sales to the gallery.
Steps To Become A Consignor:
Fill out an application
If the committee wants to see your work in person, you will receive a call or email to bring samples of your work to the gallery. However, this is not a guarantee that your work will be accepted. The gallery receives numerous requests from excellent artisans, but since space is limited, not everyone can be accepted.
If your work is accepted, the committee will schedule an appointment for you to bring in your work, complete an Inventory Form (downloadable version below) and sign the Consignor Agreement (at the gallery, when you drop off your work).
Inventory Form: SRA consignor inventory
