Invitation to Sell Artwork at Holiday Shoppe 2024

Category:Events

The Holiday Shoppe is your opportunity to sell your artwork and also support the Huntingdon County Arts Council.

We will hold our annual Holiday Shoppe at the Huntingdon County Arts Center, 313 12th Street, Huntingdon. 

The Holiday Shoppe will open on Wednesday, November 6, and be open through Saturday, December 28.

Details:

Drop Off your work at Huntingdon County Arts Center:
Monday, November 4, from 2 to 6 pm, and
Tuesday, November 5, from 10 am to 6 pm. 

Pick Up your unsold work:
Monday, January 6 from 2 to 6 pm, and
Tuesday, January 7, from 10 am to 6 pm. 

We recommend that artists to mark up their work 30%. The Arts Council will take a 30% commission on each work sold, and we handle the 6% sales tax. At the Shoppe’s conclusion, the Arts Council will write a check to each artist reflecting the amount of their sales.

Please RSVP and let us know if you want to participate. Send a email to John Kearns at [email protected].

We request that you pre-fill out an inventory sheet. Ideally we would like you to email us the inventory sheet to use before you drop off your artwork. If you currently have items in the Art Shoppe, we want a completely new inventory sheet with both new and existing items.

Please label your artwork with your 3 initials, then a dash, then a number that corresponds to the number on the inventory sheet. For example: “ABC-1”. If you have similar items at the same price (notecards, hats, etc), we strongly suggest you make them one item number with the total quantity. (For example, Notecards, XYZ-01, quantity 24). 

We will need a Hold Harmless Agreement and Sales Agreement from each artist if you have not signed one earlier this year. 

Want to share what you’re selling with us? Spread the word on Facebook and Instagram!  

If you have any questions, feel free to contact Executive Director John Kearns at [email protected].
