There is no entry fee to enter work, though students will need to have an account with the online SlideRoom portfolio service to submit samples. The submission portal opened May 1, 2015, and it is acceptable to send work in progress, as long as it is finished and ready to ship by August 15th. Accepted artists are responsible for shipping to the gallery. The exhibition will pay for the return shipping.
