Artist Display Opportunities

The Feronia Wellness Artists Collective is a group of artists supporting holistic health & wellness by making a donation from the proceeds of every sale to Feronia Wellness Organization. Creative expression is a catalyst for emotional healing & spiritual awakening and therefore an integral part of achieving health, happiness & wholeness. Every work of art is a glimpse into the artist's soul. Artists themselves act as wellness providers by bringing emotional balance & beauty to our world. FWO shows support to the arts by organizing affordable venues online & in-person for them to share their work, working together as a grassroots community to support each other.

We currently have display space for wall art & free-standing work at Feronia Wellness Center in Germantown, WI. We are creating a "Gallery Walk for Wellness" throughout our hallways. We'd like to fill the space with as many artists as we can comfortable host & invite guests to come in & take a stroll through our hallways & explore a burst of creative energies. The walk will be available during all business hours & is designed to an enjoyable way to share the work of our local artists.

All artists are given wall space or cove space based on their needs. We ask every artist to commit to a 3 month showing, since it take effort to place & space the work. Artists are responsible for hanging/displaying their own work & for helping to spread the word about the gallery. Volunteer hours are accrued by: staffing the gallery; organizing events; making phone calls to members; doing online promotions & more. It is through the grassroots efforts of our members that we find our success.

The commission splits listed below are with the artist percentage first & the organizational percentage second:

FWO Members who volunteer @FWC 5 hours/week: 90%/10%
FWO Members who volunteer @FWC 5 hours/month: 80%/20%
FWO Members who do not volunteer: 70%/30%
Commission/Consignment Members: 60%/40%
We currently have display space for artists of all backgrounds & mediums in our online collective gallery & etsy shop. We consider all artists who create with a positive intent, with a special highlight on anyone who creates with a focus on healing. We cannot host adult content, or any work promoting violence or vulgarity.
All artists are given a private online gallery within the collective and are able to organize it & to set their prices however they wish. (Please keep in mind the the commission split & shipping costs when you are determining your pricing.) In addition to the daily social networking, emails & other promotions that we do as an organization, we ask that all artists help to promote the gallery as well. As we all work together to drive traffic to our site, it will generate more sales for everyone. There is no contract for the online gallery. All artists are paid within 24 hours of receipt of their order, and are asked to ship all orders within 72 hours of payment.

Artists can post up to 10 pieces in the Etsy Shop (FWO pays the monthly etsy fees)
Artists can post an unlimited amount of work in the FineArtAmerica Gallery.
