Cherryhill Mall DISPLAY GROUP PROCEDURES
1-Participation Questionnaire
The relevant Group participation questionnaire will be emailed one month 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, one week prior to the payment deadline.
2-Payment
The $20.00 fee will be due two weeks prior to the start of each display period. Payment can be made by e-transfer to tr*******@lo********************.ca . For alternate payment arrangements please contact Joan Hall via the same email address.
A courtesy call attempt will be made the day of the payment deadline and the participant will have 24 hours to pay.
If there is no payment within that 24 hour grace period, that artist is eliminated from the group and a lottery (see item 4-Lottery) participant will be chosen and advised of their win, and asked to pay the additional fee for the extra space.
(A notice will be sent to the person who didn’t pay saying they have forfeited their spot in that group due to non-payment.)
3-Submission of pieces for display (for label preparation)
A reminder of the submission due date will be emailed 2 days prior to the submission deadline.
A courtesy call attempt will be made the day of the deadline, and the artist will have 24 hours to submit (using the LCA website Cherryhill submission online form).
If there is no submission within the 24 hour grace period, the artist is eliminated from the group and a lottery (see item 4-Lottery) participant will be chosen and advised of their win, and asked to pay the additional fee for the extra space.
(A notice will be emailed to the person who didn’t submit advising they have forfeited their spot in the group due to non-submission. A decision about the prepaid space fee will be made by the committee on an individual basis.
4-Lottery for extra display space
As noted above, if for some reason one of the 10 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 “display additional pieces”. Once we have responses from everyone in the Group, and extra space is available, the names of those who want to participate in the lottery to use extra space will have their names put into a “hat” and a name will be drawn. The person whose name is drawn is notified and is asked to verify they will take the extra space. They then remit the additional $20 for the extra space (see 2-Payment) and submit the additional pieces (see 2-Submission) as soon as possible.
SUMMARY: The deadlines will be firm with one courtesy call and 24 hour grace period – first for payment, then for submission. If the artist does not pay or submit after the courtesy call within 24 hours, they are eliminated from that group and the lottery will be run for those in that group who had responded they were interested in any extra space.

July 13, 2023 – revised
Note: Schedule is subject to change
Effective Saturday, March 18th…adjustments will be made to the display cabinets at Cherryhill Mall. Additional hanging racks will be placed inside each cabinet, giving you more options for hanging your artwork.
The diagram aove shows the spacing between the new hanging racks, so you can plan your layout. Dimensions on the right are from the inside of the cabinet, measuring from the top down.
The diagram shows a HALF CABINET
Suggestions: All art must have a secure wire to hang. If you place the wire too low, the painting may not hang flat. Also, try not to allow wire to show above the top of your painting.
The original hooks are shown below, but we are getting some additional hooks where the actual hook is at top of the bracket.
