	FAQ Frequently Asked Questions Sending Entries Rules and Regulations

Rules and Regulations Entries may be in any medium, and be of any topic matter, in consideration of bullet eight of this section. Conforming with most government postal service regulations, all works must be between 102 mm by 153 mm (4 by 6 inches). While only the front panel of the postcard will be judged, entries may also have illustration on the back. It is advisable that entries be submitted on card stock, or another rigid surface. Entrants may be enter up to 20 entries. All entries will be judged independently of each other, and not as a body or collection of works. Entries must be created by or from the entrant's original artwork. However, works created by the entrant's direct ancestors do qualify, if the entrant's relationship to the artist is clearly noted. Posthumous entries are "okay" under these circumstances. To not offend the public, no entry may include nudity, nor overly religious images, nor violent, nor racist content. (Full text of this rule) No entry will be returned. Works that do not meet the above criteria will not be presented to the jurors. Transportation Entries may be send as postcards, or sent inside envelopes. All entries must be received through the mail system, or by hand. Entries may be sent from to Visual Arts Brampton from the current date until the deadline, Tuesday, August 16, 2005 at 00:00 EST. All mailing arrangements and costs are the responsibility of the submitting entrant. Visual Arts Brampton will not accept any collect mailings. Visual Arts Brampton will not be responsible for any works lost or damaged before, during, or after the show. Accepted Works The juror or jurors' decision is final. No entry may be withdrawn from the exhibit once it has been accepted. The artist, by submission of entry, grants Visual Arts Brampton and the media the right to photograph the accepted work for publicity, educational and reference purposes. Sesquential artworks will be accepted on individual merit, not overall. FULL TEXT OF RULE 8: No entry may include full frontal nudity (either gender), nor may it contain overly religious images (such as a crucifixion) , nor may it contain what may deemed by members of the public as explicitly racist content. These conditions are due to the fact that Visual Arts Brampton is a community art group, exhibiting in a high-traffic area of a public mall. While Visual Arts Brampton Artway (organizers of the Snail Mail Show) and Shoppers World (host of the display space) want artists to have full creative license, neither party wishes to offend the general public.
