Our intention is to try and assist those who are coming from the greatest distances and who have the greatest financial need. If you are interested in applying for travel assistance, please provide an estimate of your travel expenses in the designated field when registering. Those receiving travel awards will be notified by email. The travel awards checks will be distributed at the Welcoming Reception.

The Online Submission Process

1. STEP 1: REGISTRATION
   The following information is required of every applicant
   your name
   your date of birth (mm/dd/yyyy)
   your email address
   your telephone number
   your mailing address
   Applicants for only the Dexter Jones Award, check the appropriate box when registering.
   Applicants for the Figure Modeling Competition may request to be considered for a travel assistance award, in which case indicate your estimated travel expenses.
2. STEP 2: SUBMITTING YOUR SCULPTURAL IMAGES INFORMATION
   The second step of the online submission process is submitting your sculptural images information.
   The following information is required for each sculptural image submitted.
   title
   medium
   dimensions
   filename*
   *by filename we mean the name of the image file associated with the sculpture. If the image file of your first sculpture image is saved as 'sculpture1.jpg', then the filename is sculpture1. Filenames should not contain spaces or special characters. The filename does not have to reflect the name of the sculpture. However, it must match the name of the image file associated with the sculpture. You must submit the information for every sculpture before proceeding to Step 3.
3. STEP 3: UPLOADING YOUR IMAGE FILES
   The image upload form allows uploading three image files at a time. You can return to the form as many times as needed to upload your image files. All the files must be uploaded before proceeding to STEP 4.
   all image files must be in JPEG format with the .jpg file extension.
   all image files must have a resolution of 72dpi.
   each image file should be 500px on its longest side. If your image is vertically oriented, it should be 500px tall. If it is horizontally or landscape oriented, it should be 500px wide.
   the filenames should not contain spaces or special characters.
   there are no restrictions other than the above in naming your files. The names do not have to correspond to the title of the piece. But whatever you name your file, you must enter that name correctly (without the .jpg) in the filename field when you are submitting your sculpture.
   
4. STEP 4 :: UPLOADING YOUR BIOGRAPHY
   You are required to submit a brief bio/resume.
   Simply copy and paste your bio into the form.
   Unless you have formatted your bio in html, no fancy formatting will translate to the internet
   
5. STEP 5 :: PAYING THE SUBMISSION FEE
   After STEP 4 you will be on our secure server.
   Please use your credit card - MasterCard, Visa, American Express or Discover - to pay the $25.00 submission fee.
