PERSONAL APPEARANCES AT THE VIRTUAL RECEPTION
We invite the participating artists to introduce themselves and discuss their art during the reception. Artists will be allocated a 1 minute time slot if they wish to participate. Details will follow via e-mail.
ARTWORK FORMAT, PRESENTATION & REQUIREMENTS
Artwork submissions are limited to six (6) original artworks per artist as .JPGs in the following media: drawing, mixed media, collage, printmaking, fiber art, photography, painting, digital art, jewelry and sculpture. All artwork should be submitted unframed unless the artist feels that a particular style of mounting, matting or framing is crucial to proper artistic presentation. This should be stated in the art’s description.
ENTRIES & FEES
Entries will be made online to Online Juried Shows at www.onlinejuriedshows.com. Up to 3 entries: $30.00. Artist may add up to 3 additional entries at $5 each. Payment is made through Online Juried Shows via credit card. Fees are non-refundable. There is no guarantee of acceptance into the exhibit.
FORMAT FOR DIGITAL IMAGES (JPGS) AND HOW TO SEND THEM
All entries must be submitted as a high resolution, digital JPEG or JPG image formatted in RGB color, either cropped to remove background or on a black background without a mat. Photos of the artwork should not be taken through glass or Plexiglas. Image quality is critical: Poor photography and presentation may affect acceptance by the juror. The digital image (JPG) must represent the submitted art, especially art for sale. Enter this exhibit through www.onlinejuriedshows.com. Directions for submitting artwork to Online Juried Shows are clearly described on their website. If all else fails, email or call Ken Ronney at kronney@aol.com – 818.996.1630 with questions.

SFVACC will receive NO commission on any and all sales of art from the exhibit or as a result of the exhibit. If artwork is sold, the artist must notify the SFVACC so a red dot (signifying it’s been sold) and SOLD in the place of the price, can be added. Any artwork without a sale price on the entry form will be considered “Not for Sale” (NFS.)
