Tips & Advice

- During the weekday road closures, come into the parking lot from Oak Street, and drive around any cones there, as police allow for RAI visitors.
- Every piece in the show is for sale, which makes it a good place to find an original artwork to give as a holiday gift.
- If you're a member entering work, have it framed, wired and ready to hang, with watercolor, pastel, charcoal and ink under glass, or it won't be hung.
- Sign up as a volunteer gallery sitter for a Saturday or Sunday afternoon slot using the sheet available when you drop off your artwork.
