Local Art Gallery Needs Your Help To Make a Difference

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Local Art Gallery Needs Your Help To Make a Difference!

Artrium Gallery, which is a 14 month new gallery dedicated to enhancing the livelihood of local emerging artists, is in the planning stages of its second annual Emerging Artists Awards. As last years successful event was largely due to the contributions of our sponsors who went out of their way to lend their financial support. This year we plan on using all funds raised to be able to give more prizes and give them to MORE artists, by offering prizes not only for first place, but for 2nd, 3rd and possibly 4th place in each of 4 categories (Works on canvas, works on paper, photography and new this year - sculpture).
Last years exhibition was ground-breaking for some of the finalists, as they exhibited and sold their works for the first time. This is a huge milestone in an emerging artist life, a starting point that can lead to a successful life-time art career. Nineteen local artists entered last year, with over 40 artworks on display, we were able to sell 14 pieces during the exhibition week. Some of these talented artist have continued to exhibit their works here at Artrium Gallery and some have branched out to other galleries. This competition can significantly make a difference in an artist's life.
We are in need for business to step up and to help support the gala by joining hands with us as a sponsor for the event. As a sponsor, your organisation is sure to receive exposure from media campaigns and all promotions for the event. You will also gain exposure from the audience attending the event and road frontage signs.
We have several different levels for sponsorship (starting at $25) and these are detailed in the Indiegogo Crowd Funding Campaign that has recently been launched. For every donation - you actually receive art as a thank you, a reward back to the donor. Every donor also goes into a draw to win an original painting valued at $800.
