Consignment

Sell Your Work at ARTSPaCE

The goal of ARTSPACE gallery is to provide opportunities for local artists to show and sell their art and artisan wares. Since 2018, we’ve worked hard to find ways to connect artists and the community, helping to provide outlets for entrepreneurship, artistic growth, and economic vitality. ARTSPaCE has been voted BEST GALLERY five years in a row in the Best of the Vail Valley Reader’s Choice Awards, and with good reason - we’re one of the only shops in the Valley that is 100% dedicated to promoting and selling works by local artists.

It takes a lot to keep our storefront open. We are currently running on a volunteer basis, so we appreciate your teamwork in helping keep our door open and space fresh.

Artist Benefits

Thanks to your membership and consignment fees, EagleARTS is able to provide the following benefits to our artists:

Sales Channel: Your work will be showcased year round in our gallery at 120 Broadway in Eagle, Colorado. We endeavor to open the gallery everyday, but hours vary based on volunteer schedules and holidays. We will send a monthly signup, through Signup.com, providing our artists with an opportunity to work in the shop (training will be provided).
- EagleARTS will curate a balanced combination of artisan wares and organize the displays for best performance.
- Payment of commissions on sales is typically made within 30 days of the end of each month using our bank direct system, via email notification to you. Please be sure we have your most current phone number and email for fastest processing.
Marketing & Advertising: We advertise and market the gallery in the Vail Daily, Eagle Chamber of Commerce, in local magazines, and on the radio on a regular basis in conjunction with EagleARTS Second Friday, ARTSPaCE Gallery Nights, and ARTwalk events. We regularly highlight our artist's work on social media channels (Instagram and Facebook). We also send out emails to our mailing list of almost 1,000 people.
- We will cross-promote at least one of your social media posts each month on our Instagram feed, and various Facebook related Pages including ARTSPaCE workshop + gallery, What’s Happening Eagle, Vail Valley Art Community, Downtowneagleco, Eagle Chamber of Commerce, Vail Valley Partnership, EagleOutside, and Eagle ARTS representing over 4,000+ followers.
- NOTE: Artist is responsible for creating the original Instagram/Facebook post and tagging @ARTSPaCEworkshop #artspaceworkshop and #eagleartscolorado
Reporting: We collect and file your sales taxes per state, county, and local requirements.
Artists who communicate well, cross promote regularly on social media, volunteer in the store and/or participate in events, will be featured in social media more often and be offered PopUp Shop/Trunk Show/Gallery Night opportunities, which we also offer occasionally in-store.

Artist Responsibilities

You are responsible for providing accessories to display your work (i.e. hanging wires, jewelry hangers, frames, shelving, etc.), which must be visually professional and appealing.
Pricing your work. Please price accordingly to allow for the 60/40 consignment split (60% to the artist, 40% to EagleARTS). We want you to cover your costs, too. Artists who volunteer to keep ARTSPaCE open get an extra 10% for volunteering a minimum of 8 hours in the corresponding month.
A supply of business cards to include in the bag/box when someone purchases one of your items.
Refresh, rearrange, clean, and restock items seasonally and/or as they sell.
Promote your work on social media and tag @ARTSPaCEworkshop so that we can share it. Doing so reaches more potential customers.
Participate in Second Friday Gallery Nights. This is a great opportunity to network with the community and your fellow artisans.
EagleARTS will do its due diligence to look after the art items put in its care, but cannot be held responsible for lost or damaged items. We do carry liability insurance, but suggest our artists also have their own insurance policy for their own pieces.

Artist Bonuses

Gallery Nights: In addition to our business hours, we have regular events for the community to attend and enjoy your art and get to know you. Gallery Nights typically feature live music, light apps and beverages.
Workshop Space: Do you teach your craft? Let’s talk about scheduling a class or series of classes at ARTSPaCE.
Coaching: We are happy to help you with the basics of pricing, hanging, and marketing. Please be aware we can’t do it for you.
EagleARTS ARTwalk Street Fest: 20% discount on having a booth in our September 2025 EagleArts Festival on Broadway. (Booth, POS and other items needed for display are not provided)
