Can I have my Art Show Outside?

Can I have my Art Show Outside?

Unfortunately, No.

  • The frames on our displays act like sails on a boat and any breeze will knock over the entire display.
  • The ground is usually uneven and an unstable base for our displays as well as a hazard for young students.
  • The sun can damage the student’s artwork.
  • Rain is sometimes unpredictable and ruins Plexiglas and other frame components.
  • During the spring, pollen is our enemy.
  • Depending on the year, the temperature may make your volunteers and guests very uncomfortable.
  • Frames are harder to monitor when there are no secure entrances or exits.
