Art shuttle service
This year there will be an Artwork Shuttle Service to select areas in SC.  Artists will have the opportunity to deliver Juried Show entries to a central location in each of these cities.  There will be an additional $10 fee for this service.
The Anderson Arts Center will pick up the entries and then return the unaccepted work within the first two weeks of April.  All works participating in the process will be covered by liability insurance.  Artwork accepted into the juried show will become the responsibility of the artist to pickup at the exhibit’s conclusion should they remain unsold.
All work MUST be boxed in a reusable container, with each box labeled with the artist’s name, name of piece, email, phone number and address; and include the $30 entry fee, proper entry paperwork and $10 shuttle service fee; if paying with a check, artists are welcome to combine the amounts into one check of $40.  Work not appropriately boxed will NOT BE ACCEPTED.
