Curious About the Sale?
Open to HGB members and potential members who wish to better understand the ins and outs of participating in the HGB Fiber Art Show & Sale.
Presentations cover areas of Artist Data Entry, Standards, WhenToWork, and preparation for Check-In.
The HGB Sale Technology Committee hosts a series of sessions to prepare for participation in the HGB Fiber Art Show & Sale.
The sessions are open to prospective HGB members as well as current members.
Four topics are covered:
- Sale 101: An Overview
- Complying with the Standards
- Using the Different Computer Programs
- What to Expect at Check-In and Check-Out
An introduction to the Show & Sale, how to join the Guild, what Standards is about, working shifts and why to do so even if you’re not selling anything, the overall time frame and deadlines, and the juried Showcase. There’ll be photos of previous sales at the beginning, and plenty of time for Q & A throughout and at the end.
Learn about our Standards procedures, and how the Guild ensures that every item offered for purchase is appropriate for the Show & Sale, is well executed, and is ready to be sold. We strongly encourage everyone attending to bring to the meeting examples of items they’re considering selling to see if they’re appropriate. A significant part of the session will be for participants to interact with the Standards Coordinator.
Participation in the Show & Sale is a benefit of membership in the Handweavers Guild of Boulder.
