JOIN OUR NEXT EXHIBITION

Unity is our Strength; an idea that applies as much to a group of artists
working together as it does a community, a country, or a movement for change.

You are invited to participate in Hudson Art Fair’s viewing room in support of Black Lives Matter

Unity is Our Strength will feature small works and prints, in any medium, that are moderately priced. So think small or think prints but don’t undercut yourself, maintain existing value. (We’re thinking a ceiling of $600)

We will donate a minimum of 25% of the net sale price to Black Lives Matter and local not-for-profits that are actively fighting for social and racial justice.

Rolling submissions accepted from June 15th 2020
Viewing Room opens July 1st 2020

PRICING ARTWORK

SHIPPING COSTS
Artists should include the cost of shipping in their prices.

SHIPPING PROCEDURE
Drop Shipping. The artist is responsible for shipping and or organizing local delivery/pickup. The artist will be notified when a sale has been made and will be given the buyers’ information, including email and telephone numbers. It is incumbent upon the artist to ship their work promptly and to maintain communication with the buyer.

PAYMENTS
Hudson Art Fair will make payments to the Artist on the first Friday after the payment has cleared the bank and the work has shipped.

DONATION PERCENTAGE
A minimum of 25% of the net price (net price is the sale price minus the combined cost of shipping and credit card processing) will be donated to Black Lives Matter or local causes fighting against social injustice. However, the artist can choose to donate a larger percentage.

ARTISTS SHARE
The artist’s share depends of the percentage they choose to donate to BLM. But broadly speaking, it is the net sale price + the actual cost of shipping – the percentage donated. See below for examples.

Example One:
The art is priced at $600 (including the estimated shipping) and the artist has chosen to donate 25% to BLM

Sale Price including shipping $600
Actual shipping costs 30.00
Credit card processing 30.00
Percentage donated 25%

Net Price = Sale price minus actual shipping, minus CC processing | 600-30-30 = $540
Amount donated: 25% of net | 540 x 25% = $135.00
Artists receives; 75% of net + shipping refund | (540 x 25% + 30 = $435

Example Two:
The art is priced at $200 (including the estimated shipping) and the artist has chosen to donate 60% to BLM. However, the sale is local and the buyer chooses to pick up the work.

Sale Price including shipping $200
Actual shipping costs 0.00
Credit card processing 10.00
Percentage donated 60%

Net Price = Sale price minus actual shipping, minus CC processing | 200-0-10 = $190
Amount donated: 60% of net | 190 x 60% = $114.00
Artists receives; 40% of net + shipping refund | 190 x 40% + 0 = $76.00
