Introductory Conversation

Service Description

A Personal Introduction to The Distelheim Gallery Begin your relationship with The Distelheim Gallery through a complimentary 30-minute conversation with founding partner, curator and artist-in-residence Jefferey Cornett. Available by telephone, Zoom or, on select occasions, in person, this relaxed introductory conversation is designed to help Jefferey understand your interests, preferences and hopes for engaging with art. No previous knowledge of art or collecting is required—only curiosity and a willingness to explore what speaks to you. The conversation may include the kinds of art you enjoy, the spaces in which you live or work, your previous collecting experiences, your budget and whether you are interested in an original work, limited-edition art, a wearable piece, a meaningful gift or a specially commissioned creation. The goal is not to pressure you toward a purchase. It is to establish a genuine connection, answer your questions and determine how the gallery can create a more relevant and rewarding experience for you.
