Questions & AnswersHi, This is Christina Varga from the Varga Gallery in Woodstock, New York and today on behalf of Expert Village we’re going to show you how to open and run your own art gallery. Before an opening you must clean up all your clutter. I have clutter here, which is because, uh, I’ve been getting ready. And for the show tonight I have bought my high heels, which I’m not wearing right now, because there’s no need to uh, stunt my later cruising ability, the mingling possibilities, because my feet hurt. But it is vital before everybody gets here; I get all this crap out of here. The knife I must leave here, because I’ve always forgotten the knife, the bread, the celery, the carrots, you have to have a knife, serving plates, I’ll show you serving plates after the talk. I’ll show you, whoa, that was a loud one, I’ll show how to set everything up, how to make it so that people can come over, have their wine, have their booze, have whatever they want, none of this stuff will be here, my cowboy hat, my toothpaste, always have fresh breath, always have fresh breath and get everything out of the way, just get it, just take it away.
