Art Gallery Consignment NDA & Agreement

Protect Your Gallery and Artist Relationships with a Professional Consignment NDA

Running an art gallery means balancing trust with protection. When you bring artwork into your space on consignment, you're not just displaying pieces—you're handling sensitive pricing strategies, building valuable collector relationships, and managing complex commission structures. This Art Gallery Consignment NDA & Agreement template gives you a professional, legally-sound foundation to protect all parties while streamlining your consignment workflow.

Why Art Galleries Need This Template

Every consignment arrangement involves confidential information that needs protection. Artist pricing strategies, commission rates, collector contact details, and sales records are all valuable business intelligence. Without proper documentation, galleries risk pricing leaks that undermine negotiations, artists worry about contact poaching, and payment disputes can damage relationships.

This template covers all the essential elements: mutual confidentiality clauses, clear commission structures with integrated payment processing, collector contact protection, and artwork handling terms. Whether you're a contemporary gallery, commercial space, or artist cooperative, this form creates the professional documentation you need.

Built for the Gallery Workflow

Paperform makes it incredibly easy to customize this template to match your gallery's specific needs. Adjust commission rates, modify insurance requirements, add custom terms for different artist tiers, or include special provisions for editions and prints. The doc-style editor lets you maintain your gallery's brand voice while collecting structured information you can actually use.

Once an artist submits, you can automatically generate contracts using Papersign (papersign.com) for secure eSignatures, send confirmation emails with next steps, and even trigger workflows in Stepper (stepper.io) to notify your team, update your inventory system, or schedule intake appointments. Integrate with your CRM, Google Sheets, or gallery management software to keep all consignment details in one place.

Collect Payments Seamlessly

With Paperform's built-in payment processing, you can collect application fees, deposit payments, or initial consignment fees right in the form. Connect Stripe, Square, or PayPal and handle all financial transactions securely without asking artists to write checks or make bank transfers.

This template is perfect for commercial galleries, contemporary art spaces, artist cooperatives, art consultancies, and any venue working with artists on consignment terms. Trusted by creative businesses worldwide and backed by SOC 2 Type II compliance, Paperform helps you run your gallery with professionalism and confidence.
