PROMOTION AND SALES PROCESS

The show will be promoted on the HA website, social media, email announcements, and articles in print and digital media.

To purchase a piece, a buyer will contact HA Show Manager Sandra Weeks to arrange for the buyer to pay for it at Gallery Nantasket by cash, check, or credit card. HA will then mail a payment check for 70% of the sale price for HA members or 60% for nonmembers.

The buyer will be requested to keep the piece in the show until the conclusion, but if they want it at purchase, that will be accommodated.

ARTWORK PRESENTATION

All fine art and photographs must be properly framed (or gallery-wrapped canvas) and wired for hanging (e.g., no clip-on frames or sawtooth hooks). Other mediums that are not meant to be framed are acceptable.

Each piece submitted must include a label on the back with your name, phone number, title, and price. Labels will be emailed when accepted art is announced.

HA reserves the right not to accept any piece of art deemed not suitable for hanging or presentation.

JURIED SELECTION and NOTIFICATION

A panel of three jurors (to be announced) will determine acceptance and awards.

Accepted art will be announced on April 24 by email and posted on the HA website.

Descriptions of the jurors and the links to their websites will be provided when available.



OPENING RECEPTION

On Thursday, May 12, at 7:00 PM, an opening reception and awards ceremony will be held at the Nantasket Beach Resort, provided Covid safety protocols allow. If not possible, a virtual reception will be held via Zoom to announce the award winners that will later be posted on the HA website.
