How should the artwork be submitted?

Drawings should be no larger than 11×14 inches and no smaller than 8×10 inches. (Paintings on canvas can be larger.) Drawings on white or light-colored paper will reproduce best. Do not use ruled notebook paper.

• The artwork can be most any medium as long as the art is relatively flat. Charcoal and pastel drawings should be sprayed with a fixative. Do not use glitter, sand, liquids, or other elements that can flake off or otherwise damage the works of other students. No photographic process, digitally-created or digitally-manipulated art, metallic or fluorescent paints may be used in the finished, submitted art entry. 
• Artwork in the horizontal or “landscape” position best fits the wall calendar’s format.
• The artwork should be stand-alone artwork; do not include the name of the month, days of the week, or calendar dates into the art itself.
• Submit the original artwork. Judges will not consider photocopies.
• Do not mount, mat, or frame artwork.
• Do not fold or crease artwork.
• Please do not submit artwork from previous years.
