The Art Exhibit Committee reserves the right to refuse any entry.

One accepted work from each artist will be displayed.

It is suggested that plexi-glass be used, rather than glass, as the Art Center cannot assume liability for damage to artwork framed in glass.

Oversize pieces subject to approval.
