RULES FOR CHILDREN’S ARTWORK AT
COUNTY FAIR:
Exhibiting artwork at the Grant County Fair is an
exciting activity for children. Parents, please
help your children present their art in the proper
format to be considered.
1. Pictures must be matted with a purchased
mat or piece of heavy construction paper cut 2
inches larger on all sides.
2. The art work is to be firmly placed behind the
mat with strong tape.
3. Another piece of cardboard cut the same size
as mat have two holes where string or wire can
be placed and firmly secured to the board. The
board is then glued to the back of the mat
(string can be knotted on each end to hold se-
curely).
4. After completing the steps above, you will
have 3 layers - mat, art work and cardboard
back. (Art will be hung with T pins through the
mat if there is not a permanent wire or hanger
on the back)
5. Dimensional art work (standing out from the
surface) must be mounted on a white Bristol
board in a permanent manner. This type of work
my not be suitable for matting.
6. Please allow at least a week before the fair to
prepare the artwork. The people accepting the
art work at the fair do not have the materials
available to get it ready. Remember, you are
protecting your child’s work from being
knocked down or disqualified by preparing it
properly. It must be matted and prepared to be
hung to be accepted.
Although the utmost care will be taken in han-
dling artwork, the Grant County Fair will not be
responsible for loss or damage from whatever
cause.
