Affordable insurance starts with an easy quote
Art Gallery Insurance is a comprehensive risk management portfolio designed to protect gallery owners, curators, and dealers. It combines specialized “Wall-to-Wall” property coverage for fine art inventory (owned and on consignment) with General Liability protection. This coverage ensures that if a piece is stolen, damaged in transit, or destroyed by a disaster, your gallery recovers the agreed value rather than facing financial ruin.
Running a gallery involves unique exposures that standard retail insurance cannot address. You are the custodian of high-value, often irreplaceable items. A single burst pipe above a storage room or a clumsy visitor stumbling into a sculpture can result in a six-figure loss. According to the FBI, art crime and associated losses loom large in the industry, but accidental damage during transport or exhibition remains the most frequent day-to-day threat. Without specific “Fine Art” wording, a standard property policy may value a masterpiece merely as the cost of the canvas and paint.
We structure policies that protect the art from the moment it leaves the artist’s studio to the moment it hangs in your collector’s home.
Most direct quotes only cover the basics in the left column. We shop multiple carriers to secure the critical add-ons in the right column that actually protect your livelihood.

Art is subjective; your coverage shouldn’t be. “Independent Means Multiple Choices.” We understand that a gallery needs more than just a generic retail policy.
