Dear Friends, Artists, Customers and Families,
Firstly I would like to wish you a very happy and healthy New Year for 2010.
As you may know, I opened the “Where I Fell In Love Gallery” over five years ago in Shipston-on-Stour, and have since helped over 250 artists by exhibiting and selling their work. I have loved every moment of it, from searching out the artists, getting to know them and introducing their work to the public.
Many of you will remember the “Vernissages” I organised, the Pottery Festivals and the Cup and Saucer exhibition.
Sadly, from a business point of view, the last year has been extremely difficult for all galleries and artists and I have now invested everything I have in the Gallery to try to survive this recession, even remaining open seven days a week and drawing little, if any, salary. In June, I relocated the Gallery to a bigger town, Royal Leamington Spa, with the aim of promoting the art and artists to a wider audience and to try to pass on the passion I feel.
I now have to make the decision of whether to stay open or to finally close the Gallery doors and I would like to ask your help before I do so.
How can you help me? I am sorry to say that with no help from the Banks or the Government I desperately need to raise some funds to be able to keep the gallery doors open and here are a few ways of doing it.
You can make a donation of any size – even £5 will make a difference.
For a donation of £50 you can become a Patron of the Gallery and you will be untitled to VIP invitations to all previews and 10% discount off ANY art purchased from the Gallery for the next 12 months.
You can purchase a Gift Voucher up to a value of £50 and your Voucher will be worth 25% more than the amount you paid – restricted to one Voucher per person.
You could bring forward the purchase of your next piece of art, in current times one of the very best investments you could make.
You can pass this letter on to all your friends and ask them to help the Where I Fell In Love Gallery.
I am setting up a Facebook Group as well so please invite all your friends to join and hopefully, with all your help, I will be able to support British and international artists for many years to come.
I would like to thank everyone for taking the time to consider my cry for help.
A bientot et Merci,
Bruno
