Community
When any single revenue stream exceeds our diversity cap, the overflow flows automatically to the Community Fund — supporting local arts initiatives, grants, and emerging artists.
01
No single revenue stream can exceed 30% of quarterly revenue (25% for events). This keeps Herehood financially resilient and independent.
02
Revenue above any cap flows automatically into the Community Fund instead of Herehood profits. The platform never benefits from exceeding its own limits.
03
An independent Advisory Board of three — an artist, a business owner, and an arts professional — decides how to distribute funds each quarter.
Current quarter: Q1 2026 (Jan–Mar)
| Stream | Cap |
|---|---|
| Gallery commission | 30% |
| Events | 25% |
| Any single corporate partner | 15% |
| Sponsorships | None |
| Matchmaking | None |
| Print-on-demand | None |
| Grants | None |
No allocations yet
The Community Fund has not yet made its first allocation. As the platform grows and revenue caps are reached, funds will flow here and be distributed by the Advisory Board.
The Advisory Board is independent of Herehood. Members serve in an advisory capacity and are not paid by the platform. Their role is to allocate funds in the best interest of the local arts community.
Artist advocate
A practising local artist who ensures the fund serves working artists first.
Business advocate
A business owner who understands the space-hosting side of the community.
Independent arts professional
Someone from outside Herehood — a gallerist, curator, or arts administrator — who provides an external perspective.
The Community Fund is one part of how Herehood stays true to its mission: supporting artists and local communities, not maximising profit. Our full revenue model is transparent and publicly documented.
