Some of you may remember I had several shows lined up...the last one was Starbucks in Niskayuna, NY in July.
Yesterday, I got a call from the Starbucks in Colonie, NY where I was scheduled for October--they had an earlier opening from a no show artist, and they wanted to fill their wall again, so I'll get 6 weeks this time.
Just hung them today...the space is smaller, but I packed them a bit tighter and got eight shots up...six from before, and two shots not up at the last Starbucks--Helderberg Fall and the small one of Cohoes Falls.
In fact, I think I'll go there after three weeks and change the set. It was much easier hanging this time than last--it only took me 45 minutes now that I had figured out a good way to do the Gallery Style hanging (there's a bar at the top, you have to hang from there).
So this is part 2 of my display "experiment". Part 3 is in November at a local (not a chain) coffeehouse...if it doesn't look like they three months generated a reasonable amount of sales, I'll take a different tack.
Here's a picture...now that I look at it, I don't know why we didn't slide things over a bit when we were done...we started on the left and worked to the right. I actually got more up there than I expected.
I also left two sets of my bookmarks for advertising, and of course business cards. So we'll see if web traffic picks up!
