The Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Frederick (UUCF) does not have insurance for artwork exhibited in the building.  Individual homeowners insurance may cover your artwork on display.  You should discuss this with your insurance agent.  The Artist, by signing below renders UUCF harmless for loss or damage to the artist’s property left in our church.  In no way is UUCF responsible for the art left in our building.

Your artwork will hang on the dates stipulated above.  Hanging and take down times are to be arranged through the UUCF office.  The works must be ready for hanging, that is, framed, wired or otherwise prepared appropriately for display, using the hanging system provided by UUCF.  No bulletin boards or other materials on the walls shall be removed, nor are nails or adhesive materials to be used. 

UUCF reserves the right to reject artwork that it deems inappropriate for the exhibit.  You will be responsible for the dismantling of the exhibit on the agreed upon date and time.

 A representative of the UUCF Visual Arts Committee (VAC) will be present at the hanging of your artwork and at your reception to assist with host duties, sales and other help as needed.  You will be given the name and telephone number of the VAC representative and should contact him/her in advance to arrange for access for hanging, reception and removal.  These times must be coordinated, as well, with the UUCF Office Administrator.  The kitchen will be available for preparing refreshments.  Food, beverages and post reception clean up will be your responsibility. 

 At least six weeks in advance of the show, you will provide a short (about 100 words) biography and an artist’s statement with one or two sample pictures (jpeg) of your work for publication on the UUCF website.  In addition you will provide your artist’s statement and biography with a listing of your artwork by title and price to be duplicated and made available during the exhibit.   UUCF agrees to provide an announcement about your show via Sunday service announcements and the weekly UUCF Unison newsletter.

 Checks for artwork sold during your show should be made payable to UUCF in the full amount of the price of the artwork and forwarded, together with a copy of a completed  purchase agreement (available in the gallery) to the UUCF office.  UUCF will deduct a 25% commission from the total and, on completion of the show, forward a check for 75% of sales total to you.

I agree to the above conditions:
