Act Celebrates The Independent Arts And Crafts Movement

ACT CELEBRATES THE INDEPENDENT ARTS AND CRAFTS MOVEMENT
Facebook
Twitter

We are living in a century when a lot of people have more stuff than they need. The shelves of big box stores are crowded with inexpensive, mass-manufactured knick-knacks that lack uniqueness and quality. We spend most of our money on products that come from overseas or from another state rather than supporting our local businesses and local economy.

We need a movement from doing all of our shopping at big box stores to shopping at markets, arts and crafts fairs, and from independent artists online. At ACT, we support local artists selling handmade goods at craft fairs, art shows, or online. We make it easier, less expensive, and safer for artists and crafters to sell their wares.

Here are the ways we support local artists and fairs:

  1. We offer insurance at a much lower price than most other companies can because of our online program, which allows independent artists and crafters more flexibility to grow their business.
  2. Our lower price helps artists who are just starting out get the insurance they need.
  3. We make it possible for artists and crafters to purchase a policy and receive proof of their insurance immediately.
  4. We offer two different policies so that we can best fit the needs of independent artists. Our Show Policy is for the artists and crafters who just attend one or two shows a year and do not feel they need such a comprehensive insurance policy, and our Annual Policy for artists and crafters who handcraft and sell their work online, attend multiple shows a year, or who feel they need the more comprehensive coverage.
  5. We allow clients to add an additional insured to their policy anytime, instantly, at no extra cost. This helps artists be eligible for more shows across the country. This also protects the art events because being an additional insured gives them protection against the artists’ liability.
  6. We have licensed insurance agents ready to help artists anytime during business hours with any questions they have about their business insurance. Our online presence makes us a more convenient option for artists, but we don’t let it diminish the quality of our service.
  7. We curate content on our blog and in our newsletter that emphasizes the importance of independent arts and crafts. We want to be a part of the movement from just shopping at big-box stores toward purchasing unique, handmade goods.
  8. We admire and respect our clients, and we think that everyone else should admire them too. We hope in the coming months to be able to highlight more of our clients and their talents on our blog, in our newsletter, and through our social media channels.

At ACT, we want independent artists and crafters to thrive. We want to be a part of a movement that emphasizes the importance of art fairs, events, markets, and businesses. We believe our policies will significantly help independent artists and crafters.
