Hi,
I did a search on the words "gallery" and "pricing" and didn't find the info I was looking for, hence this post/thread.
I have an opportunity to display/sell prints at a local art gallery run by the School Sisters of St. Francis. The School Sisters require that the prints in the exhibit all be matted and framed. They also take a 40% commission.
So, out of the remaining 60%, I need to factor in the cost of printing, matting, and framing, PLUS a bit of a profit margin.
Off the top of my head, prior to researching the printing, matting, and framing fees, it seems that the prints should be priced around $200+!!
My questions are:

My questions are:
- Does this sound right?
- What is typical pricing for a local gallery show run by the School Sisters of St. Francis?
- How much of a profit margin do folks typically build into the price?
