Print Competition Rules Clarification

A minor revision has been made to the rules concerning prints submitted into our monthly competitions. Please read the following and make the changes to your copy of the rules.

All prints must be mounted to some type of a rigid material (i.e. mat board, foam core, etc.). The prints can be flush mounted or matted, but the dimensions of the print/mat combination is not to exceed 16 inches by 20 inches. A print taped to the back of a mat is not considered to be mounted and will not be allowed.

The above is NOT a change to the rules but merely a request for those members who print to please abide by the size requirements for images as stated in the Rules of Competition. Last year, there were prints entered that did not meet the size requirements. These prints were accepted at the time, but we’re asking the makers to pay closer attention to the size rules and kindly abide by them. Thanks in advance for your cooperation!
