Hello!
I was wondering what one receives when they donate, such as, a newsletter, updates, etc.
We are currently in the process of opening a gallery in Northern B.C., Canada, and would like to exhibit international work.
Maybe we could collaborate?
Please contact me at your earliest convenience, and we can talk about some ideas.
Cheers,
Casaundra Henke
What do you get for a donation?
Updates, for sure. We have yet to make a newsletter, other than our postings here and @ Facebook and Twitter.
We have had a couple donations flow in here, from folks in Spokane.
We love that!
Some have donated because they like to help. Not much more.
Other have donated because they liked an exhibit they came to see, or because they sold some work and though it would be nice to give us some help, in terms of a donation.
A couple of folks donated because they had some cash in their pocket, and worried that we needed some to help boost the savings account.
We think we gave them a thank you, a quick verbal nod and a sigh as we thought about the future.
As for your space: good luck and happy trails! We have been having fun exploring what we can do here. It’s been fun! Honest.
A collaboration sounds like a lot of fun. Some of us have been talking about that as well, and considering reaching out to a couple of spaces to see what is possible. Thanks for the request. One of the members will be in-touch, and write a bit.
Where in Northern BC are you? How far north? Canada goes quite a ways up there, and many of our members love visiting, but we think they don’t venture more than three or four hours north.
