How many pictures can I bring?
As you will already be aware space is limited in the village hall so we have restricted numbers of artists. We will endeavour to fit in as much as we can to the exhibition, however the curators will reserve the right to control overall numbers of pictures per artist to ensure everyone get a suitable space to display their work. Numbers will be determined by their size, but as a ball park I suggest circa 16 small or 6 large plus any replacement lines you wish to bring should sales go well.
Please do bring along a browser for your prints. There will also be room for a small amount of art gifts.
