Section 3:  Your Work

 

As a company promoting hand made, individual, and often unique items, Artigianali Co. assumes all items are made by the artist or artisan.  However, as is sometimes the case, we understand that apprentices, assistants, and others participate in the creative process.   That being stated, who created the work you are presenting for sale to Artigianali Co.?  ____________________

Section 4:  Preferences

 

Artigianali Co. was designed to bring hand crafted items of the highest quality to the public, encourage new artists and artisans with their craft, and nurture the community in which we live and work.  One of the ways we intend to do this is by hosting events throughout the year to introduce artists and artisans to the buying public and to educate the community in the arts and crafts of our artists and artisans.

 

Would you be interested in leading a workshop to educate adults and/or children in your medium?  ____________________

 

Would you be interested in participating in special events either by yourself or with other artists/artisans to showcase your works?  Examples of events include artist’s reception, meet the artist, and artists market. _____________________

 

Opportunities may arise where a client seeks an item or quantity that we do not carry in our store.  Would you be able to accept special orders or large orders?  _______________________

 

Similarly, a client may request a special design or commission a piece of work from you.  Would you be interested in such a venture if the opportunity should arise?  _________________________



Section 5:  Biography

 

Please provide a brief biography and artist’s/artisan’s statement.  Your statement may be used on the store display and on the company website.  You may use a separate sheet of paper.
