The Jury Panel reserves the right to refuse any submissions.
Fees:All work will be submitted with the understanding that 50% of the sale price for each will be paid to IMADA and 50% will be paid to the participating artist, unless the artist has indicated a 100% donation to IMADA which is a charitable, 501 (c) (3) organization. Artist receives payment approximately three weeks after the event.
