The Ottawa Orchid Society is pleased to invite anyone interested in displaying artwork in the form of painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, ceramics, pottery, needlepoint, stained glass, quilting, or other media to participate in our annual orchid show held at the Kanata Recreation Complex on April 19, 20, 2014. In addition to regular art and photography entry classes, we have a 2014 challenge class: orchid-themed fine art “in the style of Klimt” – it is up to the creativity of each entrant to interpret this theme.
THE MAIN THEME OF EACH ENTRY MUST BE ORCHIDS.
Rules of the Exhibition: Primary subject: Orchids. Registration: All work must be preregistered by April 8. Limit of 4 entries per artist; 1 entry per student artist (under 18 years)
Set-up time: Drop off your art between 4 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. on Friday, April 18, 2014. All two-dimensional work must be suitably framed, wired, ready for hanging.
Take-down time: 5:00 p.m. – 5:30 p.m. Sunday, April 20, 2014.
Judging & fees: There are no fees to exhibit.
The registration form and Art Show information will soon be posted at www.ottawaorchidsociety.com, where we have lots of information about our group, orchids and our annual shows.
Advertising: Artist’s business cards can be displayed once judging is complete.
Tagging: All work must have the price, name and address of the artist on the back.
Sales: Indicate the price including HST or NFS (Not for Sale) on the registration form. You must be prepared to accept cash or a cheque with two pieces of ID. The show takes a 10% commission. We will have a volunteer on hand to conduct transactions – but don’t be disappointed – sales are slow. Enter for the fun of exhibiting with 2,000 blooming plants.
Insurance: Our volunteers are very careful and problems are rare, but we are not responsible for loss or damage to exhibits. You must carry your own insurance.
We are looking forward to seeing your artistic talents on display in our art gallery!
