Call For Artists
In 2020, artists need our support more than ever.
We are currently seeking new artists who are looking for a gallery to display and sell their work.
BENEFITS OF MEMBERSHIP IN THE ART FACTORY OF WHITE MILLS
Showcase Your Work
A Professional Display: The Art Factory of White Mills will provide each artist with a great space to showcase their work in our beautiful gallery. When applicable, we will provide an easel and/or bin to display additional artwork.
Create Awareness
Share Your Story: The Art Factory of White Mills will do its best to “share your story” with patrons in an effort to sell your work. Obviously, we cannot guarantee sales. Your art must touch the viewer/patron, be priced to sell (affordably), and fit the buyer’s needs.
Advertise
Create Awareness & Traffic: The Art Factory of White Mills continues to advertise at our discretion to create awareness and to drive traffic to our gallery. We are currently advertising on the radio, in tri-folds placed in many local businesses. We are members of the Northern Poconos Chamber of Commerce, Poconos Visitors Bureau, and Penn Dot Keystone Visitors Center. In addition, we are sponsors of Dorflingers, and Wayne County ArtAlliance. We advertise on a number of Visitor Center maps including the Route 6 Artisan Trail, Chamber map, and the Things To Do On Route 6 maps.
