Many people associate art with sophistication and maturity, though some believe it is only for the wealthy or snobby to appreciate. Show your friends and family your passion for arts and set up an art exhibition. Just follow these steps to learn how.
Instructions
1. Select a location where you can set up the art exhibition. If you live near a large city, then an apartment loft works well. Otherwise, an empty warehouse or even a restaurant will work. Negotiate a good time and price to rent the location. You may even find that a restaurant will not charge you because they will be able to advertise their business during the art exhibition.
2. Locate local artists who would like their art on display. You can find willing artists at a local college. Some small restaurants also feature art on their walls from local artists. Gather their names and contact information to invite them to help you set up the art exhibition so they can display their work.
3. Display all the gathered artwork and set the pieces around the room or rooms. Be sure to have adequate lighting for all the pieces to show off their beauty.
4. Serve appetizers and beverages for the viewing audience. Be sure the audience can eat all the food while viewing and walking around the art exhibition. Stick to finger foods and hors d'oeuvres.
5. Advertise the art exhibition. You can place fliers around town and on people's vehicles in parking lots. Also post at the local colleges and coffee spots. This will surely gather a crowd. Additionally, contact a local radio station and ask that they announce the set up of the art exhibition.
