Important:  Please indicate if the work is eligible for purchase, otherwise it will not be considered by the Accession Committee.  Museum will retain exclusive ownership and full copyright of all artwork purchased.

*Due to safety concerns for the general public, artwork will not be displayed if components detach from the surface or if the

artwork itself separates from its matting.  Teachers should exercise extra care while matting artwork.

**These policies help to ensure fairness for all students.  Homeschooled students may submit through their educator.
