Nash Gallery will take care of sales and sending artists checks. By submitting pieces to the trunk sale, you are agreeing to these sales conditions. Contracts will be signed upon delivery of work.

The sale will be marketed through the use of posters, handout postcards, local/area publications (365ink, TH, Julien’s Journal, etc.), direct email marketing, and Facebook. Digital submission images will be used for this.
