Books For ArtSake
Our call to local writers and publishers for books to stock the shelves of Gallery Vertigo's gift shop/treasure trove Artsake has been very successful and we now have shelves stocked with exciting books produced by the writers in our region. Not only can visitors buy a great book at Gallery Vertigo, they can support local writers and the North Okanagan's only artist-run centre at the same time. Please think of us when shopping for gifts year round.
Now Room for Cards
Additional space has been freed up in the shop area and we are now able to accept artist cards on consignment. Only individually packaged original cards produced by artists will be accepted. (Each card should have a matching envelope and be contained in a cellophane packet.) The gallery will retain a 20% commission on sales in the shop. We encourage artists living throughout the Okanagan region to submit their original cards on consignment.
Local musicians and film makers are also invited to submit their CD's/DVD's for sale in the shop. (Same commission applies.)
Please give Judith a call if you have any questions or if you would like to make an appointment to add your cards/CD's/DVD's to our inventory.
