Terms & Conditions

Northwestern Michigan College Local Area High School Student Art Exhibition at the Dennos Museum Center

Eligibility:
All High School Juniors and Seniors are eligible to enter original art works that they have created  in the 2021-22 academic year. Work may be from a class or personal work. Each student may submit up to two works to the jury. Of these, only one (if any) will be accepted.

An Original composition is not a copy of another artist’s work. This includes works based on photographs, unless the student (artist) took the photo themselves. Artwork done “in style of” may be original work if style is used with original subject matter and not copied. Artwork using appropriation should not use more than 10% of another artist work, and should be transformative.

Students entering a Group Project must use one of their two entries for the group project. Due to the possibility that teachers and other contributors to the project may be trained and experienced beyond the scope of the normal High School Art Student, Group Projects will not be eligible for prizes.

Jury Process:
Digital images submitted of the works will be judged by the NMC Fine Art and Visual Communications Faculty on Friday, May 22, 2022 and students will be notified of their accepted/rejected status by the next day. Accepted works should be delivered, ready to hang (mats, wire, etc.) to the Dennos Museum Center between April 28 and May 1, 2022 from 11am and 4pm. You must print tags for your artwork from the Artcall site.

Requirements for Exhibiting:
Works accepted via the Art Call process and delivered to the Dennos will be subject to final approval by the Dennos Museum Center and NMC faculty. All accepted entries must represent the artwork shown in the digital images submitted in the Art Call process and are subject to the availability of exhibition space, appropriateness of presentation.

All 2D works must be ready to hang with a nail or hook mechanism. Whenever possible this means the work needs to be framed. Plastic clip frames are not acceptable. Limited framing assistance is available from NMC. If you require assistance, you must contact the NMC Art Department and deliver your piece by Wednesday, May 27, 2022. All 3D works must be free standing or include an appropriate stand. If NMC faculty, or museum staff have concerns about the safety of the work, it will be considered for removal from the show. Anything less than these guidelines will be considered for removal from the show.  

By completing and submitting this Exhibition, I hereby acknowledge that Northwestern Michigan College and or the Dennos Museum Center are not financially responsible for any damage to or loss of personal property loaned by me for exhibition purposes.
