Guidelines for Submitted Work:

1. All submitted work must be appropriately protected (shrink-wrapped, Mylar covered portfolio, mat board, etc. as appropriate for the piece). The Campus Store has been asked to order Mylar covers.

2. The Art Sale Committee reserves the right to limit the number of submissions per artist based on available space.

3. The Art Sale Committee reserves the right to select artist(s) for the booth spaces and to limit the number of booths based on space/quality of work.

4. All works submitted must be appropriate for a "family day" event. The Art Sale committee reserves the right to remove piece(s) that are not appropriate for the event.

5. All submitted work must have a price listed. Please price submissions in $5.00 increments for ease of cashiering at the event. When pricing items, several things to consider include: size of piece, cost of materials, medium, and amount of time spent on creation of piece.

6. A form will need to be completed for each work submitted for sale.

7. All students will also need to complete a W-9 form when submitting works.

8. Only cash and credit/debit cards sales will be available. If a potential buyer wants to pay by check, they must contact the individual artist. Acceptance of a check is up to the individual artist.

9. For credit/debit card purchases, Ringling College of Art and Design is absorbing the transaction fee which averages between 2% - 3% per transaction.

10. If a student receives more than $600 from RCAD (awards, scholarships, other) plus monies from the sale, it will need to be reported as taxable income.

11. Please be advised that work that is matted, framed and ready to hang may be more apt to sell and for a higher price.

12. Reasonably priced work may also be more apt to sell.

13. Every attempt will be made to group works by medium, except for booth spaces.

14. All work submitted that does not sell must be picked up by no later than Thursday, March 1, 2007 or it becomes the property of Ringling College of Art and Design. See Student Life staff member for pick-up.

15. You should submit business cards along with your work in case a potential buyer wants to contact you.

16. A check will be issued to you by Ringling College of Art and Design around March 2009 for submissions sold during the sale.

17. The Art Sale Committee and/or Dean of Students reserves the right to make decisions related to processes and procedures before, during and after the sale in the best interest of Ringling College of Art and Design.
