just a PINCH
Because I am self-employed, my food budget fluctuates from week to week. I have learned how to make a casserole out of random refrigerator & freezer finds. I have learned to keep affordable staples like rice & potatoes, sauces like salsa verde & marinara, vegetables like cabbage & carrots, and proteins like chickpeas & canned salmon. I can serve a fantastic dinner for 4 for under $8 in a pinch. This next Call offers art to patrons at a really affordable price to help artists begin to build a base of collectors while presenting work professionally and taking a low commission. It is a thoughtful call. Take a look…
Check out this Call for Entries from BWAC (Brooklyn, NY) for the Really Affordable Art Show. There is a price cap on submissions to this show, but there is only 25% commission. A distinguished juror & a $1000 purchase award make this is a great opportunity…
