The application and samples must be received one week prior to the jurying session. There is a $20 application fee that must accompany your submission.

Please submit at least 5 physical samples of your work for consideration. Include items that represent each type of work you want to sell. If applicable, include some samples packaged for sale. If you plan to sell some of your work framed, please include a framed sample. If possible, please also submit digital photographs of your work to megwest[at]earthlink.net. These digital photographs, however, are not a substitute for the required physical samples.
