Pickup of Accepted Work
Entries MUST be picked up at RAM’s Wustum Museum either Monday, November 25, or Tuesday, November 26, 10:00 am – 4:00 pm.
Failure to pick up work before January 4, 2025 will be taken as an intention on the part of the artist to abandon the work. Abandonment legally dispossesses the artist of title to the work. This will allow RAM, as possessor of the work, to claim good title to it, and dispose of it at the museum’s own discretion.
