Rules

• Accepted art must be the same as submitted online.
• Show administrators reserve the right to reject a photograph when delivered to the show site if the photograph does not appear to be the same as the digital photograph submitted online or the matting and framing is unacceptable.
• Show administrators reserve the right to change the category in which a photograph is entered if the photograph is, in their judgment, entered into the wrong category.
• Every precaution will be taken to protect the artwork. However, InFocus and the Tuolumne County Arts Alliance (TCAA) will not be responsible for loss or damage to art entered in the show.
• All works must be for sale. A 35% gallery commission applies. Members of TCA will not be charged a commission.  Artists must be a member of TCA before the competition begins to take advantage of the waiver of the gallery commission. You can sign up the day your bring your photos into Angelo's Hall!
• Accepted works must be submitted in framed or finished condition. Canvas wraps and metal prints are accepted and are not required to be placed in frames. Canvas and metal prints wires needed or permission from InFocus committee. Styrofoam or alligator hanging systems on metal prints are not acceptable. Plastic or “fast” frames are not acceptable.  
• Works that have been selected for the show must be hand delivered to Angelos Hall during the check in period.  InFocus and TCAA are unable to accept works that are shipped.
• The maximum width of an image is 36 inches measured on the outside edge of the frame. The maximum overall framed size is 60 inches, which is determined by adding the outside-framed height, plus the outside framed width together. For example, a 16"x20" frame might measure 19"x23" when measured from outside edge to outside edge. Add 19"+23" to determine the overall framed size which, in this example, is 42".
