FAQ

We need 2 weeks from receiving artwork to putting up an exhibition.

Not at all, we arrange pretty much everything. All you need to do is get your children to produce fantastic artwork and we do all the rest. We collect the artwork from your school, we produce invites and posters for you to promote the event, we set up our own exhibition stands, we put all the artwork up, and we stay and take the money, we take down the exhibition, we take away any unwanted artwork, we send any extra orders and a cheque.

We travel within a 100 mile radius of our offices in Hastings.

They can pay by cash, or card.

Artwork can be bought by the school at a reduced cost, or we take the artwork away.

Yes all original artwork is returned after the exhibition. We usually keep the artwork for a week or so just in case there are any corrections as we may need to re-scan.

We aim to deliver all orders for re-prints and smaller prints 2 weeks after the exhibition.

We can send you ideas and lesson plans for KS1 and KS2 projects. Plus an email containing tips for a great exhibition.

Depending on the size of the school, it can take anything from 1hour to 2. If we are putting an exhibition up in a dinner hall and can start at 1, we usually finish in time for the children to have a look at their work before parents arrive at 3-3.30.

Yes that is absolutely fine - we can provide envelopes in which to put money, name form etc, so that everything is organised on the day.

If parents get their order in pretty quick, and we can send the print with the follow up order that arrives 2 weeks after the exhibition that is absolutely fine. If they order after this time then we have to charge for postage.

Yes, we can just scan, colour correct, title and name for you and then send the pictures for you to frame and exhibit. Obviously each piece of artwork will cost less. Please get in touch if you are interested doing something this way.

The Experience
Our aim is to create a unique professional gallery environment within the school. Highlighting every pupil’s artistic efforts, producing a feel-good factor for all.

The Pictures
Underneath each artwork, included in the generous surround are the details, which set a MiniMasterWorks, print apart from the others. Each picture carry’s the name of the pupil, the school logo, and the title of the work, serving as the perfect creative memento of a special time and place.
