Tampa Bay Art Startup
Posted by Dan
There have been some twists in the set up of my startup. In reviewing software and the general expectations of the online shopper, I feel that I have to provide a standard online shopping cart. Since I will be focused on selling Tampa Bay Art, it is imperative that I provide secure sales transactions. Since I will be focused on exposing Tampa Bay artists that are not well known and I am not running a physical gallery, I need to show that this is a serious site and that it is secure to order from. More on that soon…
I finally made it to “Art After Dark“, which is held on the third Friday of every month at the interim location of the Tampa Museum. My fiancee and I bought memberships and checked out the Scooter display. The presentation was small, but featured some very well decorated strollers and various pieces from Tampa Bay artists. The main exhibits were “green designs” and plans throughout the Tampa Bay area including the incredible plans for the new Tampa Museum that should open in late 2009.
This refreshed my view on what I hope for from my “Buy Tampa Bay Art” site. I hope to provide enough exposure to local artists to finance their talent and hopefully land some of their work in the new Tampa Musuem.
