  Lapart began in March of 2000 with a commitment to developing and supporting local emerging artists through cost effective marketing initiatives. For over seven years, Lapart has maintained its strong, growing network of inner-city hospitality locations who have exhibited over 300 artists whom I am proud to represent at low leasing fees. In August, 2005, the Wallspace Warehouse Gallery was opened with the aim of creating a fun, interactive artist space exhibiting up to 14 artists at a time. Since its inception, the Gallery has run sixteen highly successful events, already earning a reputation for high octane exhibitions with a fresh and fun approach. • ♣ Management of over 300 artists on file.• ♣ Marketing Management including niche advertising, monthly newsletters, website and database development.• ♣ Project Management of key Freshfusions events including organising artists and themes, sourcing local charities and guest speakers, event marketing and hospitality management. • ♣ Maintaining strong relationships with over 30 inner-city hospitality venues as an alternative to the gallery system.• ♣ Staff Management including catering and marketing casual staff.
