J-hooks and bulldog clips will be used to hang artwork. If you have free standing art that requires floor space, contact us and arrangements will be made on a case by case basis.

Payment must be received at the same time reservations are made.

All artwork sold in the art show is subject to a 10% commission and will be subtracted from the total sale price. This 10% will be donated directly back into the public school's art programs. If an artist is a student, the commission will not be taken unless they request to donate it. We strive to encourage upcoming artists!

We will do our best to pay all attending artists before they leave Sunday. If they leave before Closing Ceremonies we can mail a check.

Non-attending artists will be paid within one month of the convention end.

Otherwise, attending artists must pre-register paying regular pre-registration rates (unless other arrangements are made).

FORMS TO COMPLETE PRIOR TO SHOW

Please fill in all paperwork with the requested information. This includes the Bid Sheets, Pay Slips, and Control forms.

You will need to fill out the Bid Sheets/Print Shop Pay Slips AND Control Sheet(s), whether you are attending or mailing in your art. This will help avoid errors.

It is your responsibility to fill out the sheets.

Additional forms and bid sheets will be made available at the time of the Art Show.

Please attach bid sheet to every piece of art that could go to auction. It needs to be visible from the front.

Please attach a Print Shop Payment Slip to EACH piece you are sending for us to sell in the Print Shop.

Failure to follow these requirements may result in the disqualification of your artwork from hanging in the show or being sold in the Print Shop.

If you have questions or need assistance on how to fill out the forms please contact the Art Department

Mailing Art to VisionCon

If you are unable to attend but wish to participate from the comfort of your own home, you may mail art to the address listed below. It will be stored until the convention and any unsold art will be returned to you post-con. Please ship by way of your favorite carrier. Please allow two weeks for UPS and three weeks for USPS. This does not include weekends or holidays. Use sturdy, reusable cartons to ship. Remember that we cannot send back your unsold art if the box is in pieces. Be sure to send enough funds to cover return postage and insurance (if applicable). You are responsible for providing insurance while your package is in transit. The Con Committee will provide security during the con and will bear any costs incurred due to theft or loss while the artwork is in their possession.

Be sure to include a pre-paid label in your package to be used for return shipping. Try to pre-pay for UPS or FED-EX if possible. Otherwise, we will have to use USPS and your check sent in needs to be enough to cover the return shipping. The label should include your FULL STREET ADDRESS AND ZIP CODE. If you have any special packing instructions, we recommend you tape them to the inside lid of your box or staple them to control sheets. That way, the instructions do not become separated from the package.

All packages should reach VisionCon by April 17th, 2020. Any artists who have reserved space whose packages have not arrived by then are likely to throw us in a panic. We can be flexible on the date, but remember that shipping companies are notorious for dragging their feet, especially if they think it may be an important package they are carrying.
