  4. Each artist will be asked to submit 2 pieces of art: one as a donation to the library and one for private sale.
  5. Peter Abate will supply forms to fill out providing information on each piece.It is open to all mediums. The majority of the art must be able to hang on the wall, although there will be a small amount of display space for pottery or sculpture. Size limit will be determined once we know how may artists plan to participate.

  11. The works will be judged for "Best of Show," second place, third place, and 3 honorable mentions. Judging will take place prior to the reception. (There will be no monetary prizes as this is a fundraiser.)
  12. During the reception (day and time to be announced later on The Art Group weblog) winners will be announced, raffles will take place, and other works can be purchased. Following this reception the artists will be able to take home unsold work.
