FAQs
How many pieces should I bring?

Do I need to bring anything in addition to my artwork?

+Artist statement, including any contact information you would like to make available.
+Prints, stickers, business cards are welcome but not required
What are the installation requirements?
Float On uses a hook and wire system. Please prepare your work with a horizontal wire in the back, or a loop with a diameter of at least ½”.
Work on paper needs to be framed. Any hanging hardware should be secured in place using screws or nails. No tape allowed. 😉
How do art sales work?
Float On handles sales on behalf of the artist. We take a 5% commission to cover the cost of payment processing fees. 95% goes to the artist. Purchased artwork remains on display for the duration of the exhibit, and buyers pick up their art directly from Float On afterward. You’ll receive a check for any work sold when you come to collect your work after your show. There is no obligation to sell your artwork if you don’t want to.
Who do I contact if I have more questions?
If you have any questions or concerns please don’t hesitate to reach out to Clypto@FloatOn.coop.
