The Atelier Fine Art Exhibition Gift Shoppe

About this call

The Atelier, a studio and gallery in Midtown Sacramento, is turning its gallery walls into a retail space, a Fine Art Exhibition Gift Shoppe, to support independent artists, makers and creators. The walls are divided into 26 gallery squares (46" x 48", 48" x 48" and 37.5" x 48") where selected artists display and sell as much of their work as possible, with the aim of promoting Sacramento's arts economy by encouraging people to give art as gifts through an accessible marketplace of affordable, quality artwork. All media are considered; work is juried by the Atelier curator, and the Atelier processes sales and provides wrapping materials and bags.
