The maximum size for 2-D work is 4.5 feet in any direction.
The maximum size for 3-D work is 50 pounds and 3 feet in any direction. Sculptors must provide their own pedestals.
All work must be hand-delivered to the BRAF Gallery, 1 Townsend Avenue, Boothbay Harbor.
The entry fee is $15 per piece for BRAF members and $20 per piece for nonmembers.
Entry forms and more information is available on the BRAF website at www.boothbayartists.org.
BRAF will be awarding over $1,500 in prizes this year, a substantial increase from previous years. Dr. Joachim Homann, Curator of the Bowdoin College Museum and the judge for this year’s show, will select best in show, 2nd and 3rd place and two honorable mentions. Awards will be announced and presented at the reception.
The public will have an opportunity for vote for the “people’s choice” award that will be awarded when the show closes. You are invited to come see the show and cast a vote for your favorite.
The Boothbay Region Art Foundation is able to offer the awards due to the generosity of a small group of dedicated sponsors, including Sherman’s Book and Stationery, Knickerbocker Group, First Federal Savings Bank, Boothbay Framers, Joy to the Wind Gallery and Custom Picture Framing and The First Bank.
