KENAI FINE ARTS CENTER
Peninsula Art Guild/Kenai River Council on the Arts
SALES GALLERY POLICY 2011
IT IS THE HOPE OF PAG/KRCA THAT THE KENAI PENINSULA ART COMMUNITY WILL
BENEFIT FROM THE CHALLENGE OF ITS FINE ARTS CRITERIA WHEN SEEKING TO DISPLAY
ART IN THE SALES GALLERY.
1. Artists wishing to show their work in KFAC Sales Gallery are asked
to provide a representative grouping of their art for consideration and
a brief artist statement.
2. Art submitted will be reviewed by the Sales Gallery Coordinator (SGC)/Review
Committee (RC) in terms of the KFAC Fine Arts Criteria. Notification as
to acceptance will be sent to submitting artist as soon as possible.
3. Art is then accepted for display based on space available and aesthetic
presentation: currently one shelf unit/potter allotment, floor space for
larger pottery pieces, 1-4 paintings unless other arrangements have been
made, hanging and 3D works as space permits. Holding shelves are available
for storing additional artwork waiting for space in gallery.
4. Once an artist’s work is accepted for the sales gallery, it is
not necessary to have future work reviewed unless of a divergent nature.
5.When an artist’s sales gallery art is sold, the SGC will replace
it with work remaining on that artist’s overflow shelf and/or contact
artist for additional art. In order to keep fresh art in the gallery we
ask that after 12 months, unsold artwork needs to be rotated out of the
gallery by the artist and, hopefully, replaced with fresher art. Gallery
will notify artists of these pieces so that specified art will be rotated
out of gallery within one month of notification. After one month any **unclaimed
unsold art** will become the property of KFAC and may be claimed on your
IRS filing as a donation. See #6 for IRS filing.
6.Artists may, at any time, donate art work for KFAC fund raising. For
example, the annual Harvest Auction and the Holiday Silent Auction in
December. For IRS filing, our EIN is 01-1841201
7. Commissions on all sales withheld by PAG/KRCA are based on the following:
Non-members—40 % - Members—30% - *Volunteer Artist 20% (4 hours
a month)
*Artists must record their own volunteer hours at KFAC
to receive volunteer commission.
8.Artists determine artwork price with gallery commission included.
9. 12-month display of art is appreciated to avoid unbalanced presentations
of art in sales gallery. Advance notification by artist of artwork withdrawal
is requested.
Sales Gallery Artists: Please sign, date, and submit this page and your
inventory form to acknowledge you have read and understand the above policies.
Thank you for being a participant of the KFAC Sales Gallery where your
creations are shared with the community in the best possible light.
