Sales and Taxes

The gallery uses Square for all retail transactions.

Website and Promotion

Members must provide current images of their work for the gallery’s website.
Gallery 113 links to individual artist websites, and we encourage members to maintain an active site—it enhances your professional presence and benefits the gallery’s visibility.
