Membership benefits table
The handy table is the best way to compare the different Mini Gallery membership levels. Whether you are looking for another venue to promote your art or to set up an art website for the first time to display and sell your art online this page should give you an overall idea of the features available. For more information please see the new applications page.
The membership prices are all inclusive. No commission is charged on art sales / art commissions.
There is no application fee, there is no gallery set up fee and there is a free no obligation 7 day trial membership to give you the chance to familiarise yourself with the artists' admin area. The artists' admin area is designed to be used by those with a basic knowledge of computers and does not require any knowledge of HTML or any form of website coding.
Guest membership is our probationary starter level - £30 for a 6 month subscription.
All other membership prices are for a 12 month full price subscription.
These prices do not take into account the two annual membership renewal discount schemes (Early Bird and Loyalty) which apply for artists renewing after 1 year or more.
Membership upgrades may be possible part of the way through a subscription. In this case a proportionate amount is payable.
