Prepare your exhibit with ease, whether you’re into painting, drawing, photography, sculpture…
Planning an event such as an exhibit requires a special organisation. You have your artists and a venue? It’s time to raise awareness about your exhibit — use your website and social media, create your tickets and send your invitations! Weezevent will be your best ally in this adventure.
Once the first few steps are done — picking a date and location, selecting the artists showcased, setting the price of the works — create your event for free on Weezevent. Fill in the date, the location and the times. Let your guests know how to get there and whether there is parking space nearby. Add your exhibition poster. Describe the theme represented by the exhibited works. Your ticketing is a blank canvas: turn it into a masterpiece.
Whether it is a retrospective, a temporary exhibition or an opening, Weezevent works for all types of exhibits. Create ticket types for the days your exhibition is open. Add a price: fixed, pay what you want, or free. Set the terms of sale and the potential documents your attendees may have to provide on the day — ID card, student card, membership card… Offer the possibility to book in advance and pay on location. It is your exhibit, you are in control!
Any art event — especially exhibits — requires attention to detail and in particular to the aesthetics. Customise your tickets to make their design truly unique. Add the image of one of the artworks exhibited or the event’s poster. Describe your exhibition detailing the theme or simply give advice on how to get there. Opt for one general ticket design or one for each ticket type. Your exhibition is unique, so are your tickets.
Communication always has a role to play in an exhibition’s success. Think about writing a press release to inform the people who are likely to relay news of your exhibition and create business cards. Integrate your ticketing plug-in to your website. If you don’t have one, you can create a minisite for your exhibit for free. Don’t forget to communicate on social media. Add your ticketing to your Facebook event and page to increase awareness. Get people talking about your exhibition!
Invite your partners, your sponsors and artists. Stand out with unique invitations! Select the ticket type of your choice and the number of recipients. Enter your guests’ details either manually or using an Excel file. Create a special “invitations” ticket type, set the price to €0 and make that ticket type invisible to the general public on your ticketing module. Add artwork to your free ticket and share your invitations. Customise the message that will be sent along with your free ticket or choose to despatch them by post. It’s all in your hands!
