Exhibition Pitch

I want to organise a solo exhibition somewhere in Leeds before the end of the year. I think there are a lot of spaces that could potentially facilitate this type of venture.

The work for the exhibition would be screen prints of my collage experiments, and potentially a themed installation/3D piece of work. There is also scope for selling zines or publications, and smaller items that people are more likely to pick up at a fleeting event like this. They would also act as a memento of the exhibition and trace it back to me.

The duration of the show could even just last for one night, which could act as a selling point to draw people into attending.

Concerns I have at this point is if anyone would actually make room for this event, as well as rental fees and charges for space hire. From the research I've done so far, these costs can be quite steep.

I've had experience in creating work for exhibition as well as organising products / prints for sale. As for the setup of the exhibition itself - I think this would be relatively straight forward as long as I plan in advance.


Here is a proposal that I plan to forward to venues once I have the go-ahead or information I need from them.
