Last week for the exhibit, closing day and art collection

Hi everyone,

I hope you all are doing well.

Hard to believe that in eight days our show will be at its conclusion. Time really does fly.

In reference to closing day and subsequent artwork pickup:

Because Future Tenant has an opening night reception and an additional reception for the gallery crawl for all curations, as a general rule there is no closing night reception, only the regular business hours of 12:30 – 6:00. It would be up to us if we wanted to have anything after hours at the gallery. I thought it might be nice to have some sort of potluck thing with BYOB for like an hour or so after the show. This would only be open to only the artists since there is not going to really be staff available after hours, we can not really open it up beyond our group apart from a few limited guests as I do not want to be liable for too much. Also since we will be responsible for food and drink, it will be limited in supply. But this will give you guys one last opportunity to chat and then also warrants the opportunity to pick up your artwork. Let me know if any of this seems appropriate for your schedules.

Regardless of whether we have a potluck/artist pickup or not, we still must designate a time for you to gather your work. FT suggested after close on the 13th or the next day. Let me know on that as well.
