General Instructions
An accepted application is a commitment to the show. No refunds will be made for cancellation, inclement
weather, illness, or any other reason. NO EXCEPTIONS.
All artists must show for the full two days of the festival. Artists are required to staff their exhibits during festival hours.
Our primary concern is the creative vision of the applicant and the quality of the work. Work must be original in concept and made under his/her direct supervision. Original art must occupy more than 50% of the exhibitor’s booth space. Artist’s statements clarifying production methods are required. All “Original work” means no copies, reproductions or facsimiles of any type.
Commercial studios involved in multiple or volume production will not be considered for the show. No machine
reproductions, photo mechanical reproductions or commercial reproductions (photo offset, letter press, photocopy,
gravure or giclée) are permitted unless they are signed editions of no more than 250, properly framed, and clearly
labeled “reproductions”. Artist must define “limited edition” in their Artist Statement, and must disclose their
process to the buyer
No mass reproduction in combination with original, hand-crafted work is permitted. Copies from the works of
masters, advertisements and widely circulated photographs are not considered original works of art and will not be
permitted. All items must be handmade by the artist. Commercially manufactured items, commercial molds,
patterns or kits are not acceptable.
All work exhibited must be comparable to work shown in submitted images. Any work exhibited at the show
which is inconsistent with the juried subject will be removed by the Committee Chairmen. Artists accepted to the
show must exhibit two-dimensional work (e.g., photography, painting, watercolors, graphics, pastels, prints and
drawings) as appropriately framed and glazed pieces. Unframed, matted works may only be shown in one flip bin
and the bin must be clearly marked reproduction.
Seventy-five percent (75%) of the work displayed in each booth must be for sale at the festival.
The festival does not allow political campaigning, speeches or advertising.
Be sure to send a SASE with your application. Images submitted for jurying by the accepted artists will remain the property of Art in the Pass and may be used for publicity and affirmation purposes during and after the festival.
