View general rules and regulations
1. Please read and follow all the important information and rules on the website.
2. In the Ceramic and Plaster section ONLY (Adult, Teen and Children's Sections L and M) sets of Ceramic or Plaster pieces (i.e., multiple objects) will be accepted. The sets MUST be attached or displayed on a sturdy board, platter, stand, etc. of dimensions not to exceed 12 inches by 12 inches.
3. Entries in the Charcoal, Drawing, Calligraphy, Pencil and Graphics sections MUST be covered with plastic or glass. The Fair will not accept the added responsibility of exhibiting unprotected artwork. Please do not submit artwork wrapped in plastic wrap. Plastic wrap obscures the work of art and makes it difficult for judges and the viewing public to see the quality of the work. Sculptural and clay pieces do not require covering.
4. Artwork larger than 3 feet in any direction must be pre-registered with the Art Chairperson. Please call at least one week before entry day.
5. Be original and creative!! The judges' request: No coloring book pages, tracings, stencils, paint by number kits, copies of photographs or copies of famous artwork.
