IMPORTANT NOTICE:

For juried exhibitions or special exhibits you may be required to ship your work to us depending on whether it will be an in-person exhibition or not. Check the Call for Art or contact us to verify whether the exhibit is online only or an in-person exhibit. If you are requested to ship your work to us, include the shipping label in your box.

For new or renewing current EAI Members who would like to have their work represented in the ONLINE EAI Member Gallery,  you may send us one or two good quality jpegs and information, and we will post your work in the online EAI Member Gallery, click here for more information, and here to see the online EAI member gallery. You will not be shipping your work to EAI, only submit the jpegs, and we prefer you also send us the label with your submission.

If you need a label for an upcoming CALL FOR ART or are submitting jpegs for a piece for the EAI Member Gallery:

  • Locate the link below for the Exhibit or for the EAI Member Gallery.
  • Download and print the label, fill it out and attach it securely to the back of your piece or bottom of your sculpture.
  • Please be sure to type or hand-write in the name of the show you are sending the piece for if the name of the exhibit is not noted on the form.
  • In addition to the label which should be securely attached to your piece, you also need to fill out a separate label that you will email to us to keep on file for you. Anytime you send us work, the piece should be labeled and we should have a label on file for you.
  • When filling out a label, be sure you print legibly (or type) all information and fill out the form completely.
  • Please ship your art as requested in the Call for Art to the Encaustic Art Institute, (EAI) or to EAI Office (as indicated below in shipping info), or to Museum of Encaustic Art (MoEA). The addresses are noted below.
  • You’ll find more information on shipping and labels under the Send Us Your Art tab or by clicking here.

Please note: Adobe Reader/Acrobat has changed something about how you may edit files to fill out forms. If you have a problem entering your text into the PDF file, click this link to read how they suggest filling in forms using Fill & Sign. When you’ve finished filling in your form, save the file by clicking File>Save as, from the top menu bar, to save to your desktop. Then you can send the file as an attachment to your email.  You may find that it’s easier to print the document, fill it in by hand, scan or take a photo of the form and send the image to us via email.
