Artemisia: Living with Art

This describes an exceptional opportunity for an artist, gallery or consortium to rent a very large portion (one third) of a full island at actual cost. I’m not looking for a profit. I just don’t want this resource to go to waste. Please read this and pass it on to anyone you think might be interested.

The Artists community of Artemisia has been a vital creative place  in SL for about 4 years. Things change and the long-time residents have had to move on, so we are now looking for new partners to rent large portions of this amazing place AT COST. No profit is to be made in this transaction.

Here’s the deal. The island was a gift to me by Zephyre Zabelin in service to art.  I can only afford about a third of the cost myself (about $100 of the $295/month tier). Because the land was a gift in service to art, I am determined to honor that gift, as I have for nearly 3 years, by offering  the other 2/3 sim AT COST. I already have an artist committed to renting the second third, leaving one third of the sim available.

This is an exceptional opportunity to rent a very large share of a sim without having to buy in. You simply have to pay the actual continuing cost for your share.

Here are the numbers:

Available share: 1/3th of a full sim (this is NOT a homestead sim).
Square meters: Approx. 21,845 (65,536/3)
Prims:  5000 (15,000/3)
Cost: $100 US ($300/3)

You can have a partner or whatever you need to make it work on your end. You may not subdivide or sublease the property. You will be solely responsible to get me the rent on time every month. There is no better deal available in SL. It costs what it costs. If SL lowers their prices (yeah, right) then you still only pay the actual cost of tier. I am willing to redesign the island to accomodate the vision of my partners. I’ll teraform to your needs.

CAVEAT: The essential issue is that I have to live there, too, so if I don’t think your idea for the island is in keeping with service to art and something I can live with, I won’t rent it.  But if I do like your idea, I can do a lot to support you.  Please contact me ASAP to talk about what you think you’d do with this opportunity.

I urge you to visit our beautiful island while you can. My remaining residents are beginning to pack up, so things will be gradually clearing until the end of the month, after which we will transition to the new partnership, which will dramatically change the look of the place. We will continue to have regular concerts by Shannon Oherlihy, Sunday nights at 6PM SLT in the Treehouse venue (though the treehouse itself may shift position a bit).

Thank you for your attention.
