RESIDENT ARTISTS

 

Welcome artists to “Resident Artists” at  Warren Knapp Art  and Home in Palm Desert, California. As a gallery owner, my intention is to showcase a variety of art while bringing artists and collectors together. This hybrid concept of part Art Show, part Gallery, part Art Studio, is a great way to have artists show their work in an art gallery setting.

The Resident Artist gallery at Warren Knapp Art and Home is open 10:00am to 4:00pm Tuesday-Sunday, with a gallery art event show every two months.

Resident Artists  pay $395 per month with a two month minimum, paid at time of sign up.

Resident artists may submit up to five art pieces. Two small, two medium and one large, the large not to exceed approximately 36”x48” with hanging materials attached. This gives our collectors a variety of sizes and price points when adding your art to their collections.

Warren will hang all artists work in a general “Gallery Wall” fashion, where artists works will mingle with other artists works.

Artists works will be available for viewing at Warren Knapp Art and Home, Palm Desert and online at Warrenknapp.com

Interested collectors will be given the artists contact info and the artist will collect money for their art from the collector. Warren is passionate about connecting collectors and artists together with out the “wall” of a gallery owner separating the collector and artist.

Artists may switch out their art at anytime, have their work at other galleries or art shows or retail establishments, at anytime.
