Pricing
Guest artists pay a higher commission to the shop than co-op members. We recognise that this will mean the guest artist’s work is likely to be more expensive than the other work in the shop. The regular visitors to the gallery are used to paying slightly less for our artwork than other galleries in town because of our low commission rate, so this may be something you may want to consider when pricing your work for the co-op. Please discuss this with us if you are uncertain about pricing.
Labelling
