This is a fantastic space to shoot. We shot two interviews for a documentary, and it was great for sound purposes as well as visuals. It's the perfect blank canvas. The entire team was extremely helpful and responsive throughout the process. Can't recommend this space enough!

The gallery offered us a solid location for our documentary interview. It's large, open space that gave us plenty of room for equipment and had all the amenities we needed for a one-day shoot. Carla and her team were very communicative and great to work with.

Excellent space! Eileen and Steve were wonderful hosts and so helpful with making our vision come to life! We hosted our Open Bar film fundraiser here and met our goal by then end of the event! If you're looking for a quality space to elevate your brand/project - look no further!

Jay-de's location is is hauntingly beautiful and filled with special antique pieces that easily create a dark victorian vibe. The 2 level space is great for shooting in the downstairs area and holding crew/cast in the upstairs area. The best part about this location was that Jay-de was ok with a little rearranging as long as everything was placed back in it's original location.

An art studio allows emerging and established artists to showcase their work.

Art studios, including museums, homes, and exhibition halls, come in all shapes and sizes.

Amazing Events for Gallery Spaces

Giggster has function rooms in Toronto, Los Angeles, New York, and many other cities. You can easily rent a studio, pop-up room, or art building to showcase your creative work in front of the world. Different types of settings can free your imagination for a passion project or support your attempt at breaking into the marketplace.

  • Galleries – Photography Exhibits. A museum or showroom is the first choice when showcasing photography exhibits. Visitors can benefit from the neutral surroundings and understand the artist and the work.

  • Exhibit Halls – Charity Auctions. Exhibitions make the auction quite prestigious and impressive. Art helps bridge the gap between the events and the donations. It allows people to bid on something tangible to help people in need.

  • Warehouses – Pop-Up Marketplaces. Pop-up stores and booths in art spaces offer upmarket, high-value artisanal products that are hard to find elsewhere. You can arrange booths in a manner that impresses guests during live product demonstrations in the showroom or art exhibits.

  • Exhibit Halls – Fashion Shows. Most exhibitions have beautiful flooring, lighting, and excellent air conditioning, usually perfect for a night of haute couture with fashion shows. Additionally, the near-basic shades of art exhibit spaces always enhance designer clothes.

  • Galleries – Wine Tastings. Position tasting stations near different artworks so visitors can roam about, enjoy the art, taste the wine and cheese, and have a good time mingling and chatting.

Gallery Space Event Must-Haves

A few aspects can make one studio space perfect over another. Giggster can help companies and individuals find a listing that perfectly matches their vision. Here are some must-have features to remember when looking for art exhibit spaces in New York or any other city.

Will you need to hire event staff and docents? In addition to the rent, transport, and logistics, you should consider the staff and docents. They can provide information about the artwork, fashion pieces, or photos.

Where will you set up the food and beverages? The museum may have a specific area where food and drinks are allowed. However, a park or outdoor space will require a custom setup tailored to the environment.

Does the space have wayfinding? Many galleries have passages guiding visitors to various exhibits with the help of proper signage and wayfinding. You will need additional signage to host a book launch or unveil artwork installations.

Pros and Cons of Events at Gallery Spaces

There are many reasons to plan a gathering in an exhibition hall and make it the talk of the town. However, like with any event setting, there are merits and demerits to consider.

Advantages

  • Art exhibit spaces have plenty of history adorning the walls. Such beautiful work provides an impressive setting to stage shows or celebrate a special occasion.

  • Networking events, receptions, product launches, and other get-togethers are just some of the functions you can comfortably plan here.

  • These creative places are visually appealing and ideal for film production, photo shoots, and entertainment.

Disadvantages

  • Art exhibit spaces are pretty distracting. The artwork wall can be a major distraction if you plan a reception or product launch.

  • Many exhibition spaces can get cramped, with limited seating space for guests. Since they are not usually large venues, you may have to re-evaluate the size and space before finalizing.

  • There may be noise or distractions if other exhibits or shows are on simultaneously.

Planning Your Gallery Space Event

Art galleries are unique spaces for pop-up events, performances, conventions, and video shoots. Giggster handles the location support, so explore our art exhibit spaces and use these tips to plan a stand-out function.

Pick the Exhibit Space You Need – Rent a museum for a workshop or video shoot and an exhibition hall for a convention or auction. It's helpful if the location offers access to other spaces for different activities.

Rent an Event Space With Necessary Facilities – Renting the right venue with all the necessary facilities and amenities completes half your work. Contact the property owner and ask if the location can hold your function.

Hire Vendors – It's a plus if the establishment has an in-house caterer, lighting technicians, a cleaning crew, a security team, and photography or film crews. If the location doesn't have the professionals you need, get external vendors.

Document Everything – Document your week-long series of exhibits, a dance show, or a reception. There's no better photo or video shoot setting than an art-filled location. Record the entrance, key highlights, the show, people, and sound bites. Use the images for marketing purposes or create social media posts.

How to Save Money on a Gallery Space Rental

Natural light, wall space, and a mostly bare appeal make art spaces perfect creative backdrops. Giggster can help you find suitable settings for your next event that won't drain your bank account. Here are a few tips to save money and still put on a show!

Can you book a small venue?

Art exhibitions are flexible and also come in all shapes. A cozy location costs less than a massive room. You can easily find event spaces that suit your requirements on the Giggster app, with rents starting as low as $25.

Can you choose minimalist decor?

The beauty is in the artwork. You will probably not require a lot of decor to make the place look pretty. Please pay attention to the lighting; it can make your event backdrop look high-end without costly furniture or equipment.

Can you reserve an off-peak time?

Ask property owners about off-peak dates and if you can get a lower rental rate on those days. Weekdays, mornings, and afternoons are good time slots for cheaper rent. The location may charge higher during the weekend and the holiday season.

Plan a Successful Gallery Event with Giggster

Peruse the listings on our app and book a location that fits all your requirements. Host your next memorable event in a beautiful space, whether a modern and contemporary art space in downtown Los Angeles with plenty of natural light or an artist's hidden gem in Brooklyn.
