Welcome to the
One Small Town
Art Gallery
When you revive the artistic spirit of a community, you revive the soul of the entire community.

Art Galleries Initiative

Small towns and villages are filled with talented artists and creators who are not always seen or discovered.

Many such artists often find it difficult to promote themselves to a wider audience. The ONE SMALL TOWN initiative presents the artists in small towns and remote communities with a window to the world of art lovers and collectors.

OST Art Galleries feature monthly online auctions for all new works of art on display.

Receive Ongoing Royalties

ONE SMALL TOWN Art Galleries are changing the way that art is sold
Artists receive 60% of the selling price from the first auction or sale. After the first sale, OST artists continue to receive a 10% royalty on every future re-sale of their works. The same way that musicians and authors receive royalties for sales of records and books.

Each work of art is turned into an NFT (non-fungible token) with a unique identification code, which becomes its certificate of authenticity. With each re-sale of the piece, the NFT certificate is passed onto the new owner as proof of authenticity and chain of custody.

10% of the selling price is automatically reserved for the artist as a royalty. Both the physical and digital version of the artwork can be sold and re-sold, always accompanied with a certificate of authenticity.

Art owners selling their art on this platform, will automatically initiate a flow of royalty payments to the original artist/creator of the art piece. OST curators will do everything in their power to find the original artists to load them onto our system for their ongoing future royalty payments.
