Setting up an art gallery

Art galleries are finding themselves both in the business as well as the non profitable venture sectors. However setting up an art gallery for whatever purpose requires proper planning and coordination. The first prior concern is finding a space, usually a large ground floor room with wide blank walls. Secondly it is important to appoint a curator, whether it is oneself or hiring a professional. Advertising the word out allows artists to develop interests to rent out the space. Having an entry fee for the first few exhibitions attracts the audience and hence a wide array of appreciation as well. Lastly, art galleries are all about showcasing talents and art and hence it is important to keep this spirit growing for a successful venture.
