- In instances where a third party wishes to purchase or commission a similar work from the LeMoyne Arts exhibition after the exhibit has concluded, LeMoyne will act as an intermediary in arranging the transaction for a 20% commission fee. If an artist is in direct contact with the buyer, LeMoyne will kindly ask that the artist honors this 20% commission fee and pay LeMoyne within 1-week after receipt of payment.
