Original art, sourced for the way designers work.
Midnight Gallery's trade program was built around one premise: designers are strapped for time and they need someone who gets it without the extra hassle. Trade pricing, complimentary mock-ups, pre-release collections, and a team that responds — this is how it should be.
Apply for Trade AccessSourcing original art shouldn't feel like a second job.
Between galleries that don't return calls, vague pricing, and art that every client has already seen on a mainstream site — good sourcing is harder than it needs to be. We think a gallery partner should make your work easier, not add to the pile. That's the whole point of this program.
Built for the way you source
01
Trade Pricing
Qualified trade professionals receive 15% off all in-stock inventory. Receive a discount code once your account is approved.
02
Complimentary Mock-Ups
Send us a photo of the space. We'll drop any piece from our collection into it — to scale, in context — so you can present to clients with confidence.
03
Pre-Release Access
New collections reach your inbox 48–72 hours before they go public. First pick, no competition, no refresh-and-hope.
04
Extended Approval Periods
We understand project timelines. Trade members receive extended holds on works being considered for active projects — no pressure to commit before your client is ready.
05
Quarterly Catalogs
A curated, designed catalog of current inventory — with dimensions, pricing, and medium — delivered to your inbox every quarter. Something you can actually use in a presentation.
06
Commission Support
Need something that doesn't exist yet? We work directly with our artists to facilitate commissions — custom sizing, colorway designed to fit your space. We manage the process so you don't have to.

What designers say
Trusted by the people who source for a living.
Lauren and Leslie have been a dream to work with. They have helped us source pieces from their talented roster of artists, guided us through the commissioning and framing processes, and even assisted in sourcing work from artists outside of their immediate portfolio. The pieces they've helped us with are among some of our favorites we've selected for our projects. Beyond their clear expertise, they are kind, approachable, and honest, and they are building a wonderful community for art lovers and the trade. We are so grateful for their partnership.
Courtney McCoy
Lauren and Leslie have curated an incredibly fresh, and personal gallery that we love sharing with our clients. Artwork is often the finishing layer, and the artists they represent bring such beautiful energy, and individuality to the spaces we design. Their collection feels approachable yet elevated, making it easy to find pieces that truly resonate with each client's story and style.
