Networking
is so important for artists. We typically work in isolation, so
staying connected and sharing information and opportunities is
what it’s all about.
Media
Loft artists network by email and in person, sharing news and opportunities.
We try to attend and bring guests to each other’s openings
onsite or offsite to show support.
A web
site is in the planning stages that will include information on
artists, events and shows. The recent open house was in April ’07.
The next open house will be the 1st weekend of Dec. ’07.
Media Loft is not
only a community of working artists. We are working to make it
an alternative exhibition destination in Westchester County, NY.
We want to promote
the studio artists. We also want to promote Media Loft for other
artists.
The Hallway Gallery
was planned for large exhibitions and receptions, and has excellent
lighting and good sight lines.
The exhibition
calendar for solo and group shows is almost filled for 2008. The
space is organized for mostly wall-hung media with some sculpture.
Area artists are welcome to apply for a show. There is no fee to
show (except a small refundable deposit for possible damage). There
is no commission to Media Loft for sales.
Visiting artists
install their exhibitions, create all promotional materials and
assume all costs for installation and openings. I’ve been
to openings that overflow with guests, good food, and live music
and sales. Word is getting out and people are coming by to see
the shows.
We are happy to
offer Media Loft as an alternative gallery space. Good art in the
hallways and guests on site improves public awareness and appreciation
for Media Loft and for all the artists.
The next open house
at Media Loft is set for December '07. Please email me if you would
like to be invited, or make an appointment to visit and see the
space.
