Choose the useful stages
Tell Exhibity how this Pop Up works. If there is no formal entry, Receiving, Curation or later Collection, those stages can be left out.
Exhibity for Pop Ups
Use the stages you need.
Leave out the ones you don’t.
A Pop Up may move straight from setting out the work to welcoming buyers. Exhibity does not make it imitate a gallery-style exhibition in order to keep a useful sales and payout record.
A shorter exhibition journey
Configure the exhibition around the way the Pop Up actually runs.
Many Pop Ups do not formally track every work. Artists label and display their own work, buyers bring purchases to the Sales Desk and the work usually leaves with them.
Choose the Exhibity stages that match that arrangement. The unused stages stay out of the way rather than becoming empty jobs for volunteers to complete.
Give the Sales Desk what it needs
Record the artist, work and price when a sale is made.
Keep payment where it is
The organisation’s existing card terminal or other payment arrangement takes the money. Exhibity records the sale; it does not handle the payment.
Settle with artists
The recorded sales provide the figures for commission and artist payout, without asking the organisation to adopt the rest of a gallery-style workflow.
Cards and other untracked items
Sell greeting cards without cataloguing every card as an artwork.
No record for every card: a line such as greeting cards is sold as an untracked item, so nobody has to enter each card as an artwork first.
Quick at the desk: when cards sell, record the artist, quantity and total price rather than finding an individual artwork record.
Ready for payout: those modest sales still contribute to the artist’s sales total and the organisation’s commission figures.
Sold, not tracked
Untracked items do not create extra jobs.
An untracked item has no individual record to receive, locate or return. Exhibity records the sale and the artist it belongs to, and leaves the rest of the stock with the artist.
Useful detail at the point of sale
Record enough to pay the right artist.
Even when works are not tracked beforehand, the Sales Desk records the artist and a short description of the work when recording the sale. That gives the organisation the detail it needs for commission and payout.
No unnecessary stages
Pop Up does not mean “small gallery exhibition.”
It is its own exhibition pattern. Exhibity follows the stages the organisation selects and keeps the experience proportionate to the work volunteers actually do.
Flat fee
£10 for a live Pop Up that makes a sale.
The fee is £10, whatever the number of participating artists. There is no charge while you prepare or practise, and no exhibition fee unless the live Pop Up records a qualifying sale.
