Hey Monika,
We would love for your gallery to adopt a fountain. How it works is that we come on a Saturday, install the fountain, which shouldn’t take more than an hour or so. You keep the fountain for a week, maintaining it, adding water, cleaning, etc. and fielding questions from the public. Hopefully someone who see’s it at your gallery want’s to adopt one of their own, so they can sign up on the blog. We come the next Saturday, take it down, and bring it to it’s next location. This little dance goes on for the whole month of September. So… when would you like to order a fountain?
Talk soon, Paul
