PAG by 01/31/2012.   If space allows, registration for any other members will open on March 15.

SPACE PRICES WILL INCREASE AFTER MARCH 31, SO REGISTER EARLY!!

The show will be a set up a bit different this year.  The committee will be setting the room up in a boutique stye instead of large boxy booths.  In order to do this, we will be setting up grids/panels in a 6 foot length with a grid on each end, thus forming a capital I.  Using your own grids is encouraged  providing they can be formed as stated.  There will be 13 grid spaces available using PAG grids. The committee will be setting up the gym Thursday evening.  If using your own grids, you may deliver them and set them up at this time.  No art will be delivered/set up/dropped off on Thursday night.  Another option will be table space for those who do not use grids to display their work.  You may use 2- 6 foot tables.  Please plan to provide your own.  The Mainstreet Center has tables, but they are in use in other areas much of the time.

Set up:  Friday, May 4 – 9:00 A.M. to 12:30 P.M.

Set up on Friday must be completed by 12:30 P.M.  Anyone arriving after 11:30 A.M.. will not be allowed to set up and will forfeit their entry fee.

No one will be allowed to set up after the show has begun.
