Art is not to exceed 36” in any direction and must be accompanied by a poem. Art must have been completed in 2020 or after and not previously exhibited at a VFAA show. One entry equals one framed piece.
Selections
All entered artwork must be inspired by or related to a poem, and must be accompanied by that poem. Entered work is reviewed with poetry selection. Entered poetry may be written by the artist or commissioned poet, or can be previously published. Previously published poetry is not eligible for the poetry competition. Only poems written for PAN entries are eligible for poetry awards. Poetry must not be over 20 lines. Poetry without artwork, or artwork without poetry is ineligible.
Art will be digitally reviewed for acceptance. Accepted pieces will be judged for awards after art intake. Original poetry accompanying accepted art will be judged for poetry awards. Artwork which is different than digital images will be rejected.
Agreement
Submission of work to the jury constitutes compliance with all the conditions stated in this prospectus. The jurors’ decisions are final. Participating artists will be notified of jury results by email. Accepted works will remain as placed by the PAN committee, and will not be withdrawn until the close of the exhibit. The VFAA reserves the right to photograph and reproduce all entries accepted into the PAN exhibition, regardless of copyright. Such reproductions will be used for promotional and/or educational purposes only.
Sales
The VFAA will handle art sales at the SHAC, taking a 25% commission. Price your work accordingly, or mark NFS. If you do not include a price, we will mark the work NFS.

Two-dimensional work must be framed and ready for hanging with wire securely affixed to back. NO saw-tooth hangers are accepted. Three-dimensional art must be ready for presentation with instructions and mounting hardware, if needed, for display. If, in the opinion of the juror or committee, accepted work is not suitably prepared for exhibit, or deemed to have been misrepresented in its submission, the work will be disqualified. All 2-dimensional work must be labeled on the reverse side with name, title, medium and price.
