Policies for Acceptance into LAC Open Shows
If the below policies are not followed, the artwork will not be accepted.
All submitted artwork must be original and not a reproduction. All artwork must not have appeared in a previous show at the Louisa Arts Center.
TWO (2) quilts may be entered per quilter.
All quilts must be ready to hang in a professional manner from picture molding.
Attach a tag to the back of EACH artwork with the following information:
a. Name of Artist
b. Title of Art
c. Medium
d. Price or Not for Sale (NFS)

Artwork is not required to be for sale, but if for sale and sold, the Center will retain a 30% commission of the price listed by the artist. Set the price of the artworks taking the commission into consideration. The artist shall contact the Arts Center and remit 15% of the sale price of any item, which is purchased by an Arts Center client or referral from opening night to 365 days later.
Physical artwork must be delivered between 9am-11am the Saturday prior to the show opening following the online submission process with uploaded images. (NOTE: we cannot accept shipped artwork. In-person submissions only.) Due to lack of storage space, art may not be left at the Center prior to the scheduled drop-off date.
The Center reserves the right to reject from exhibition artworks accepted by juror due to content, inability to install the work (ie. improper hanging hardware), or work not ready to be hung.
Artist will be notified by Monday evening following drop-off via email regarding artwork selection(s). Artists are responsible for checking their email account for notifications. Artwork not accepted must be picked up during Gallery hours prior to the show opening. (NOTE: any shipped artwork cannot be return shipped and will be considered an in-kind donation for our annual fundraiser.)
Artwork is required to remain on display until the end of the show.
After the close of the show, artwork must be picked up at end of the closing or on the Saturday morning following the closing. NOTE: any shipped artwork cannot be return shipped and will be considered an in-kind donation for our annual fundraiser. Artwork left at the Center for more than two weeks after the close of this show will become the property of the Center and considered an in-kind donation to the Annual Silver Tie Gala fundraising event.
By submitting artwork for entry and upon acceptance, the artist agrees to allow work to be shown and reproduced for publicity purposes.
The Louisa Arts Center takes every precaution to protect entries from damage and loss; however the artwork is NOT insured by the Center.
I agree to hold the Louisa Arts Center harmless and to indemnify the Louisa Arts Center against all claims resulting from losses.
