Art show introduces transparent pricing

Eagle Times Staff
BELLOWS FALLS, VT — Canal Street Art Gallery is presenting Art For All Seasonal Group Show sharing gifts from regional artists. The show seeks to make art appreciation accessible and affordable to all.

The Art For All Seasonal Group Show is on view through Jan. 6.

This year’s show includes artwork by 23 artists: Penelope Arms, Taffi Brown, Jean Cannon, Spaulding Dunbar, Len Emery, Jaqueline Evans, Nancy Fitz-Rapalje, Lesley Heathcote, Medora Hebert, Deedee Jones, Theresa Karinski, Carol Keiser, Charlotte Lacoste, Patricia Magrosky, Jeanne McMahan, Pat McPike, MC Noyes, Phyllis Odessey, Phyllis Rosser, Roxy Rubel, Gretchen Seifert and Marianne Shaugnessy.

This year, the show introduces transparent pricing. Each artist gives a price for the artwork, and a price for the frame.

The gallery takes its commission percentage on the artwork price only, in an effort to help artists with rising framing costs. Identifying labels also show the amount the artist is paid from the sale. The use of transparent pricing for the Art For All Seasonal Group Show is to make the purchase of original art even more accessible, user friendly and easily understood.

The gallery is re-introducing its sliding commission scale and taking a lower percentage on artwork priced under $200. This makes art more affordable and supports artists.

The gallery also continues to consign new inventory from its 34 represented artists of unframed works for sale in its flat file, many for under $100 and under $50.

Canal Street Art Gallery is located at 23 Canal Street, in Historic Downtown Bellows Falls, Vermont, and is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
