Art Amiss does not discriminate based on race, class, gender, age, education, or medium. All works submitted within the guidelines will be considered solely on the basis of their merit within the context of the Art Amiss event.

Artists are responsible for delivering art to the event and removing their art following the event. Art Amiss will not be liable for any damages, loss or theft of the work resulting from these circumstances.

Artists must be originally from or current residents of Arkansas.
