provided no clip art is used and work is original by the artist exhibiting. All works must be original. NO KITS,
COMMERCIAL MODELS, MOLDS, PATTERNS, COPIES, CLIP ART or CUT-OUTS will be accepted, and the
work must be that of the artist present. Limited edition prints may be exhibited, but must be labeled as such,
signed and numbered by the artist, and are not eligible for judging or awards. NO CRAFTS WILL BE
ACCEPTED. Please call if you have a medium not mentioned, as limited other media are accepted. Cash
awards and ribbons are offered. Each space will be at least 15' x 15' in order to accept artists' canopies plus
space all around, and may be filled with your choice of display materials. Actual space only will be offered;
each exhibitor will need to provide all display racks, tables, chairs and other props to accommodate the exhibit.
SPACES WILL BE ASSIGNED on a first come, first served basis, with consideration for special needs and
interesting presentation, and will be marked for identification. Set up time will be from 8:00 AM till 11:00 AM;
each exhibitor must be ready for the judging and to show by 11:00 AM. Everyone is encouraged to make his or
her space as attractive and creative as possible. Artists or their representative must remain with the exhibit. All
artists are expected to stay for the entire length of the show, and penalties may be assessed if the artist leaves
early without prior arrangements made with the director. No commission is taken by the organizers. All taxes,
to include a 7% sales tax, are the responsibility of each artist. All artists are responsible for cleaning up their
area. No trash must be left!
Artists who have NOT EXHIBITED WITH ARTS ON THE RIVER PREVIOUSLY must submit three photos or
slides showing your original work. (This can also be done via e-mail.) Include a self addressed, stamped
envelope only for the return of prints or slides. Entry fees should be included with the application, and will be
refunded only if the artist is not accepted for the show; no money will be refunded for no-shows. There is no
rain date -- the show will take place rain or shine. The organizers reserve the right to reject any works deemed
not appropriate. The artist releases the organizers and any sponsors from any damages or injury incurred
during the show by the exhibitor, representative thereof, or to the works exhibited. NO AGENTS PERMITTED
FOR THIS SHOW. Should the artist cancel prior to the event, a $25.00 administration fee will be retained. A
late fee of $20 is required after deadline. Tent space will be available on a very limited basis, more than one
artist per tent for an additional $15 fee per artist. Spaces in these tents will be smaller than those outside.
Tents will be set up and taken down by the administrators of the event. Priority will be given to those who are

after that, they will be offered on a first come, first served basis.
