REQUIREMENTS

 

Media: Acrylic, ceramic, drawing, fiber, glass, mixed media, oil, pastel, print, photograph, sequential art, sculpture, and watercolor/watermedia artworks.

 

ELIGIBILITY   Open to all living artists. Entries must be ORIGINAL work not exhibited in previous Arts North/Arts in Harmony shows.  Copies, class work, or fragile work will not be considered. Work requiring more than normal careful handling is not eligible. The Hopkins Center for the Arts reserves the right to determine acceptability.

 

Entry Fees (Application Fees): Two images for $35 and additional images for $5 each may be submitted. A total of up to 10 images may be submitted. A maximum of three artworks may be selected for the exhibition.

 

Make sure that your email address is accurate. Later Arts North communications will use this email address. Digital images must comply with standard CaFE (CallForEntry.org) specifications. Maximum width of the horizontal dimension is 45 inches (this dimension runs from one outer edge of the frame to the opposite outer edge of the frame). Up to 2 works with outer edge of the frame to the opposite outer edge of the frame dimensions of 60 inches may be accepted if juried into the show. Free-standing sculpture must fit through a standard door space and be light enough such that a manual dolly can handle the work. All hanging work must be properly framed (gallery wrap - no staples showing on the edges is also acceptable) and have a hanging wire. No sawtooth or photo hangers. Drawings, prints, photographs, watercolors, and batik not under glass or plexiglass must be completely fixed to a backing board. Shippers, please note that glass is both heavy and potentially subject to breakage in transit. Plexiglass is a good substitute for glass.

 

ACCEPTED WORK

 

Accepted entries must remain on exhibit for the duration of the Main Show or the Traveling Show if accepted.  You will be asked as part of the registration process if you wish to have your work considered for inclusion in potential Travelling Shows. All accepted work must have the name of the artist and the title of the work placed on the back, preferably on the upper left hand corner, or on the bottom or the back of sculptures.

 

 

 

SALES  Any accepted work that the artist chooses to list for sale will be sold, as displayed, through the Hopkins Center for the Arts.  HCA will collect sales tax and retain a 30% sales commission.  NOTE: Sales price includes frame, please price work accordingly.
