Give visitors the ultimate online encounter with your exhibition
Curate and publish beautifully rendered galleries with artwork displayed in high resolution on all desktop and mobile devices.
Start by choosing and customising your gallery
Our galleries have been carefully designed to match the scale of real world spaces and as you can swap on a monthly basis, it allows you to choose the one that suits the size of your next exhibition.
Each gallery has it’s own unique ambience and shape.
You can use the default gallery settings or customise the name and recolour any wall or surface. With the addition of wall graphics and text, you are able to create a unique environment for each of your exhibitions.
Creating Exhibitions
Each gallery can display up to five exhibitions concurrently.
The first exhibition you create is marked ‘Featured’ and will be the exhibition that opens the gallery.
The other four exhibitions can be marked as Current or Past and are accessed via the MORE EXHIBITIONS menu.
Uploading and Managing your Artworks
Upload individual artworks directly into an exhibition or in bulk along with full details, into your Stockroom, ready to add to the exhibition.
We offer a range of customisable presentations for your artworks. Choose between a rectangular or circular display using paper thin, or 1 or 2 inch canvas depths. Frame styles and mattes can be added with the ability to adjust the frame and matte size, as well as the colour.
Add your notes to display by the side of the work on the wall along with the title, artist’s name, medium, size and price.
Select which wall buttons you want to appear beside the artworks. The choices include buy, Inquire, Share, Link to a video or webpage, Vote or Like.
Hanging the Exhibition
This is where you position each artwork on the walls of the gallery.
We understand that curators need the flexibility to easily move works from wall to wall as they work through the design, then be able to accurately position the artworks. We have provided tools to assist with this.
Just drag and drop artworks onto the wall. Then use the ‘eyeline’ feature to automatically position works at eye line height. When you want to group or create a salon hang use the ‘grid’ to accurately position artworks.
Artwork information can be displayed on an individual basis so you can choose just one description to represent a group of artworks.
Preview and Publishing
Curate, Preview, Edit and Publish your exhibitions to desktop and mobile devices.
Quickly Preview your curation in the 3D gallery environment at full quality, and experience your exhibition as your visitors will.
Making adjustments to the position of works and editing their information is simple and quick.
Publishing allows you to mark the exhibition as either Featured, Current or Past and set it’s duration using opening and closing dates.
You can also choose Publicity and Privacy settings as well as enabling Password protection, before Publishing.
Exhibbit is an outstanding, easy to use tool for the artist who wants to offer his or her collectors a professional, online experience that is far and above the typical simple, two-dimensional images on most web sites.

Display - Embed or Pop-up
Use the Embed link to place a gallery directly on a page of your website. This will load and display automatically when the page is opened.
Another method is to add the Web Page link as a hyperlink in an image, button, or text line in your website. When selected the gallery will open in it’s own browser page.
Choose between a Responsive, or a Fixed size display for your gallery exhibitions.
Responsive will fill the browser page.
Fixed size can be customised to fit any website page.
Promote your Exhibitions
Once you have published an exhibition it is ready to promote.
Each of the five exhibitions can be posted separately using the Promote button found by opening the exhibition in the gallery manager.
Begin by selecting a view of your exhibition, which will be sent along with your INVITE. Once you have selected the channel, create your message to post on social media or send in an email, and send it.
Visitors to the exhibition can select from several wall buttons to inquire, share, link to another webpage, to like or vote for an artwork, or to buy the artwork.
Artwork information and links are also viewable from a drop down panel in the top right hand corner of the gallery window.
Promote further engagement and receive feedback from viewers by enabling the ‘like’ or ‘vote’ wall buttons.
See where your visitors are with Analytics
After 24 hours, you will begin to see the results of your promotion.
You are able to review the number of visits, where they came from and when by viewing your analytics.
If you have Like or Vote selected these results are also displayed.
