MEGA × First Thursday: Online Viewing Room

MEGA has partnered with First Thursday to power the fair's online viewing room. As a participating gallery, here's what this means for you:

(1) Your works go online: before, during and after the fair Every work you're showing at MEGA will have a dedicated page in the online viewing room, where visitors can browse, learn more, and make enquiries directly to you.

(2) QR codes at the fair You'll receive custom QR codes to display next to each artwork on your wall. Visitors scan, see full details, and can enquire instantly, with no more scribbling names on a notepad.

(3) A complimentary First Thursday trial (worth £500) Every enquiry from the viewing room and QR codes is captured automatically into First Thursday, along with enriched collector profiles, so when the fair ends, you know exactly who showed interest and who's worth following up with
