Our hometown of St. Petersburg, Florida is rich in the arts, which is one of the reasons SavvyCard’s founders and staff love being here. Unfortunately, rather than wandering the streets looking at art all day, we’re inside, so we’re looking for some pieces to help keep our minds, spirits, and walls fresh.

We’re still trying to figure out what terms we can offer that will work for both us and artists. We’re a startup, so we don’t have thousands of dollars to sink into buying art, but we thought we might display art for sale without commission. We’re in the glass-walled, ground-floor offices of One Progress Plaza, at 200 Central Avenue, so the art we put on display will have plenty of visibility, and we also have regular foot traffic from business folks who may have more money to spend than we do. We can also hook you up with SavvyCard tools.
Artists can submit their available portfolio and a short bio for display to David Morris (View his SavvyCard here). SavvyCard employees will select artwork on a rolling basis.
