Create Exhibitions

The exhibition List can be set to show in Tile View or List View, as well as sorted out by “Most Recent” or “Alphabetical” order.

Details

• Exhibition Title

• Exhibition Type: Choose between Medium and Small Room

• Exhibition Visibility: 

  • Public: everyone with Vortic Collect installed on their phone or tablet.

  • Private: everyone you have previously Invited through the Collectors tab on the main menu of your CMS and have accepted said invitation.

  • Invite Only: Solely for specific collectors you choose from the above list. You can select different ones every time you create a new exhibition or viewing room.  You can invite unlimited collectors to have access to a viewing of a specific piece or group of pieces to facilitate private sales and they would all receive the invitation and have access individually. 

  • WE ADVISE FOR THIS TO BE SET AS “INVITE ONLY” AT FIRST FOR THE GALLERY STAFF TO INITIALLY CHECK THE OUTCOME OF THE EXHIBITION IN THE VORTIC COLLECT APP.  CHANGE IT TO “PUBLIC” ONCE YOU’RE SATISFIED.
