Fundraising with P. Buckley Moss
How it Works
A print by P. Buckley Moss gives your organization:
- The recognition and endorsement of a world class artist.
- A way to thank your committed donors.
- An introduction to thousands of Moss collectors
- A new way to raise money by selling the print to your supporters.
Plus your image will be shown with pride in the homes and offices of your supporters providing a great talking point for friends and business associates
Raising Funds
Your organization raises funds through the resale of the print edition. You will purchase the prints from P. Buckley Moss Galleries at the special charitable print edition rate – a 50% discount. You will resell them to your support base at regular retail. A typical $80 print will therefore earn you $40, for a total of $8,000 when all 200 prints are sold. You can arrange to take pre-orders and deposits prior to the release of the print.
If your organization is within the market area of an established P. Buckley Moss dealer, we expect you to work with that dealer to promote the prints and offer framing services.
Print editions may retail from $80 per print to $200 or more.
