RULES (truncated)

No work made with commercial kits, molds, patterns, plans, stencils, or prefabricated forms may be exhibited. No buy/sell. Offset reproductions of original art may be sold, but must not comprise more than 20% of exhibited work or occupy more than 20% of a booth space.
• Each exhibitor's work may be screened by Art Fair jurors during Art Fair on the Square. Artists whose work does not comply with the rules, or differs from the images submitted, will be asked to leave. The judgment of the jury will be final, and no refunds will be given.
• Artists must be present to exhibit and manage their displays during Art Fair. Artists are limited to the booth space(s) they were assigned; booth spaces are non-transferable. Any artist who has not been juried into Art Fair, or has not paid the jury and booth fees, will not be allowed to exhibit.
• All sales will be conducted between the artist and the purchaser.
