ANNUAL FINE ART SALE Plans are well underway for the Fine Arts Sale in November. As Exhibition Director, it is my job to oversee the setting up of the venue itself, which is Parkgate Community Centre. This will require the help of the entire Equipment Team and any others who want to help in the transporting of the panels, easels and other equipment to the venue, setting it up, according to a floor plan, and then taking it down. This will be a big job and has to be done reasonably quickly as we will be setting up at 7:00 am and the show opens at 10 am. Volunteers are also needed to man the "floor", assisting purchasers, providing security and generally keeping things running smoothly. It is important that I start gathering names now so that the Committee is up to date on who is definitely helping. Please refer to the table of volunteer positions required under Wanda Doyle's section. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES ANNUAL FINE ART SALE (preliminary) o Up to 7 paintings per artist may be submitted o Diptych will count as 2 paintings, triptych as 3 o Maximum size is 40" one side, finished size. However, through the experience of other clubs and organizations large, expensive paintings do not normally sell well in this type of venue. Average size of 16 x 24" is recommended. o Framing requirements no clip frames frames must be in good condition, no scratches or dents. o As we would like this to become a well known. event with a good standard of paintings available, we wish to see submissions of previously juried or recent work. o Pricing suggestion again through the experience of other clubs and our own we believe paintings in the $200 $500 range will be the most popular sales. Prices cannot be changed after submission. Minimum price should be $50.00 o Titles please keep them short for labeling purposes. o Security wires will not be required. o No prints or glicees will be accepted original work only please. - - -- -- Juiying REGISTRATION PROCESS ANNUAL FINE ART SALE (preliminary) cEiitfi Warner 604-980-5358 warneren@telus.net o Fees: o $15 entry fee for the show o $4 per painting hanging fee o Fees MUST be paid in full prior to the show no fees will be collected at the show due to time constraints.
