10 Steps to the Summer Project 

• Pay your 2021-2022 AGOP dues. Dues may be paid on the AGOP website or at the September 7, 2021 meeting.
• Pick a historic person or place from the approved suggested “2021 Summer Art Project List.” THE ARTWORK MUST BE COMPLETED OVER THE 2021 SUMMER. Send an email to Phyl Renninger (prenninger@aol.com) with the subject line “Summer Art request” and with your selection. To ensure a variety of historic topics, we are requesting one name per topic (Historic person or place) allowed, first requests will be honored, any duplicate requests will be referred to the list. You will receive a confirmation response.
• Create your masterpiece. The artwork must be the original work of the submitting artist, completed during the Summer 2021, or in the case of a historic photo, either a copyright permission to use the photo or the arrangement/presentation is significantly altered.
• The size of the artwork must be 16 x 20. Frames should not exceed 3 inches. (For artwork that includes a mat, try to keep the outside dimensions close to the 19 x 23 3” frame limit.)
• Fill out the AGOP entry form (found on the website and/or sent via Constant Contact.) The small tag should be attached to the wire on the back of the artwork, on the right-hand side, and the large tag will be submitted when you register the artwork at the September meeting.
• Type a 3-5 unlined index card, or similar type of card, with the information below shown below.
• Take in will be at the Sept 7 meeting (First meeting of the new AGOP year). If you cannot attend the meeting, please send your artwork in with a friend. Submit artwork, entry tags (2) and wall tag.
• Artwork will be judged by three community leaders. Three selected artists will each receive a $25 Gift Card.
• Visit the artwork at Orange Park Town Hall. It is possible that the exhibit may move to the County Courthouse following the Town Hall exhibit period.
• The artwork may for show or sale. For artwork sold during the exhibit, 10% of the sale will go toward AGOP Scholarships. Payment will be made via the AGOP Treasurer. Pick up dates and times will be posted on the AGOP website.

Certification

 Each artist is required to sign the entry form certifying that each piece submitted meets the Art Guild of Orange Park’s criteria for entering an exhibit.

• If there is a dispute about any of the standards being violated, a review committee will discuss, and appropriate action will be taken. All decisions of the review committee will be final.

Guidelines

 Framing – Frames should be sturdy, no loose joints, no nicks, scratches, or obvious repairs to frame. Artwork should fit, no open spaces next to the frame.

Clean everything – Clean the frame and both sides of glass, if used (artwork under glass needs to be photographed before framing). Avoid Plexiglas that is aged or damaged. Mats should be clean.

Wiring & Hanging – D-rings or bar hangers and braided wire are required. Wiring and hardware should reflect the weight of the artwork. Wiring should be 1/3 down form the top. Gallery wrapped canvas must be at least 1.5”, painted on all sides, and have wire and hanging hardware.
