This post and the fact that I have recently been shopping for insurance =
leads me to ask y'all other gallery owners, WHO is your insurance =
company? =20

I am currently insured by Nationwide and they cover the consignment work =
at wholesale cost only. Got a quote from Erie and they completely =
exclude all consignment. The agent says very few carriers will touch =
consignment because of the variation in valuation. I wanna get a couple =
of other quotes; please tell me who is insuring your gallery. :)

Thanks

On a similar note - does anyone have a good source for event
liability insurance? Our
guild runs shows and workshops, and while some facilities have
insurance that covers
our events, other places don't.
