Cherryhill Mall DISPLAY GROUP PROCEDURES

Revised Jan 30, 2024

1-Participation Email/Questionnaire
The relevant Group participation Questionnaire will be emailed one to two months prior to the group start date. Please review the complete email carefully – this questionnaire includes all deadlines and an outline of what is required. A response to this questionnaire is needed as soon as possible.
A reminder email will be sent to those who have not responded prior to the reply deadline.
No response by the due date results in elimination from the group.

2-Payment
The $10.00 fee will be due two weeks prior to the start of each display period. Payment can be made by e-transfer to treasurer@londoncommunityartists.ca . For alternate payment arrangements please contact Joan Hall via the same email address.
A reminder email will be sent one week prior to the day of the payment deadline.
If there is no payment by end of day on the due date, that artist is eliminated from the group and a lottery (see item 4-Lottery) participant will be chosen.

3-Registration of pieces for display (for label preparation)
The label information is due one week prior to the display date. Go to the LCA website, members area, Cherryhill, and complete the Registration form. A reminder of this due date will be emailed one week prior to the submission deadline.
If there is no registration by the due date, the artist will have to hand print their labels for the display when they arrive at Cherryhill on the display date.
NOTE: There may be exceptions to this due date so please read each email carefully.

4-Lottery for extra display space
As noted above, if for some reason one of the 16 people in the Group will not be participating, we will have extra space in the cabinets.
This extra space will be offered to those in the Group who have answered YES in their Questionnaire to item 2. Once we have responses and payment from everyone in the Group, the names of lottery participants will be included in a draw. The person whose name is drawn is notified and asked to verify they will take the extra space. They then remit the additional $10 for the extra space (see 2-Payment) and register the additional pieces (see 3-Submission) right away.

SUMMARY: The deadlines will be firm– first for participation, then for payment, and last for registration of labels.  IMPORTANT:  See Display Guidelines

IF YOU MAKE A SALE, PLEASE NOTIFY THE COMMITTEE AT: cherryhill@londoncommunityartists.ca. so we may update our records.

If you’re not sure if you paid already, please ask treasurer@londoncommunityartists.ca before remitting, so we avoid double payments.

Anyone who does not show up with their display pieces will not receive a refund and forfeits their space.

Overall Process and Requirements

Revised Jan 30, 2024

As per our January 2021 general meeting, London Community Artists has entered into a relationship with Cherry Hill Mall allowing members of LCA to display their artwork in designated display cases. These 8 cases are located in the hallway leading to the Passport Office. The purpose of this letter is to inform our members about the process and requirements of this opportunity.
• Wooden cases with plexiglass fronts have been installed in the hallway leading to the Passport Office .
• Display cases are 4’ tall and 8’ long and 5” deep.
• Display cases open awning style and are locked after each display is installed.
• A black wooden rail system has been installed inside each display case with special fittings to hang artwork.
• Artists in good standing are selected at random to display their work for a 5 week duration, and the schedule is provided annually and a link posted to this site.
• Each artist has an area 42” X42” to display their artwork (half of a cabinet). There is no limit to the number of pieces as long as they fit within the space assigned.
• Artwork will be no deeper than 3” in order to fit in the display case.
• Artwork must be wired and ready to hang. (Wire is preferred due to the hanging system.)
• D rings are generally placed a third of the way down when preparing your piece for hanging.
• Make sure the back of each painting has a sticker with the title, artist name, and price to match the label submission.
• Artwork is changed out once every 5 weeks.
• Artists are required to deliver their artwork to Cherry Hill Mall at a scheduled time – notice of time is provided about a week prior to display date. Artwork ONLY is permitted by Cherryhill Mall, and must not be controversial – no nudity, violence, religious themes etc. (A ‘no show” or late cancellation forfeits their fee and space.)
• Artists will be required to pick up their artwork at Cherry Hill Mall between 2:15 and 2:30pm at the end of the 5 week period, and will sign a form that all artwork has been received in good order.
• Any artwork SOLD must remain in the display case until the end of the 5 week period.
• Artists will pay a flat fee of $10.00 to LCA to display their artwork no later than 2 weeks prior to installation date. No commission will be charged on SOLD artwork.
• Any extra space won through a lottery will require an extra fee of $10.00 for the extra space.
