The A Boards
There are 3 A-boards available for you to use to advertise your exhibition while it is on.
1 metal framed, perspex covered board with wheels.
2 lighter wooden boards with perspex covering.
We recommend that you use large and colourful posters on these A-boards. A2 sized posters are suitable for all of the boards, but in particular for the metal-framed board.
The more effort you make to attract public attention using these boards the better.
Small black and white photocopies of flyers look untidy and unprofessional.
We also recommend that your posters be laminated to keep them weatherproof.
Where to place the A-boards during your exhibition
The metal framed A-board should be attached, via the chain and padlock provided, to the Corn St end of Leonard Lane. The board itself should be on the pavement with the arrows pointing down Leonard Lane.
Please only use blue tack to attach your posters inside this frame, as glue and tape will damage the frame for other gallery users.
This board is heavy, but we have attached wheels for ease of mobility and so that you do not damage the A-board or yourself!
A lighter wooden A-board can be placed at the top of Corn St by the bollards at St Nicholas Markets, especially on Wednesdays (farmers market), Fridays (if you are open) and Saturdays (craft/clothes markets).
The posters for this board will need to be laminated, again please only use blue tack to attach your posters.
Make sure the arrows on the A-board point in the right direction!
A second wooden A-board should be placed right outside the gallery so that people coming towards the exhibition from Corn St can see it. Only blue tack again, please.
Please do not put a board at the bottom of the steps on St Stephens St or at the Small Street end of Leonard Lane, as the pavements in these locations are narrow and it is illegal to block them.
No A-boards should be left out overnight or they risk being stolen or vandalised.
If any A-boards go missing during your show your deposit is at risk.
Recommendations for your Private View
For your private view padlock the metal A-board, via the chain and ring attached, to the wall at the Corn Street end of Leonard Lane. It can get very busy out there.
Place a second A board just outside the gallery opposite the doors.
Please do not forget to collect both boards at the end of the evening!
No A-boards should be left out overnight or they will be stolen or vandalised.
If any A-boards go missing during your show your deposit is at risk.
