Trade Program
Original art,
sourced for the way
designers work.
Midnight Gallery's trade program was built around one premise: designers shouldn't have to fight for access to good work. Trade pricing, complimentary mock-ups, pre-release collections, and a team that responds — this is how it should be.
Apply for Trade AccessWhy we built this
Sourcing 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.
What you get
Built for the way you source
01
Trade Pricing
Qualified trade professionals receive preferred pricing across our full collection. Applied automatically once your account is approved — no code, no ask every time.
02
Complimentary Mock-Ups
Send us a photo of the space. We'll composite 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, or an entirely original brief. We manage the process.

Common questions
Before you apply
How long does approval take?
Two business days. We review every application ourselves and respond personally — not with an auto-reply.
What does trade pricing look like?
Trade pricing is applied to your account upon approval. We're happy to discuss specifics when we connect — every relationship is a little different depending on project volume and scope.
Can I request work on approval?
Yes. Trade members receive extended holds on works for active projects. Get in touch and we'll work out what you need.
Do your artists take commissions?
Several of our artists are available for commission work. Tell us what you're envisioning — size, palette, brief — and we'll match you with the right artist and manage the process from there.
Do you ship nationwide?
Yes — we ship anywhere in the U.S. All work is professionally packed and insured. International shipping is available; contact us for a quote.
I'm a solo decorator, not a large firm. Do I qualify?
Absolutely. The program is open to any qualified design professional sourcing art for clients — solo practitioners included.
