The event was scheduled until 1130 pm
but we stayed until around 130 am
 

But that's not the only part - Profit Share

  • We created an ecosystem where everyone gets to eat
     
  • The Melanin Exhibit is $20 at the door
  • Artists got 40% of the cut referring guests 
  • Guests bring their friends, their dates, colleagues
     
  • Tickets sold in pairs of 2s and 3s
 
Artists used this link to invite guests -> https://form.jotform.com/93086128357261
 
All our projects have a profit share philosophy
  • This is the profit share for our exhibits
  • and because we want everyone to benefit
  • You also get 40% for every artist you refer to us
 
We extended the exhibit. It's every Saturday, until March 14th
We plan to have a potluck on Saturday so bring food
