Art Documentation Monthlies

$80 + HST per capture (Public Price)
$40 + HST per capture (Member Price)

Open Studio is excited to offer documentation services for primarily two-dimensional* artworks using our Archive digitization rig. Sessions are currently facilitated by Helen Tran, an Archive Assistant Volunteer since 2022.

The maximum capture area is 24” x 36”. Pricing is per capture, with each session including both JPEG and RAW files. In-camera white balancing is provided, but post-production is not included. Helen is available for post-production work as a separate service.

Documentation Monthlies take place on the last Monday of every month, with availability varying occasionally.

To sign up, please email studio@openstudio.ca. We’ll assign you a time slot. The sign-up deadline is the Sunday one week prior to the session date.

Please arrive on time and bring:

  • Your pieces to be documented
  • A USB memory stick with at least 64GB of free space
