* You can submit up to 5 images. As usual, the submission is FREE!
* Submitted prints should not be bigger than 5x7” or 6x6".
* Try to avoid type if sending promo cards.
* If you send original artwork, please sign it on the back and specifically mention that it's for The Curated Fridge. All the original artwork will be saved after each Fridge Show. No artwork will be returned. By sending original artwork, you agree to all the above.

Again, you have to mail your prints AND email the jpgs. The curator will be judging your images by printing quality and will be installing the show on the fridge. The jpgs will be used for promoting your work on the website and social media.
If printing is not your selling point or you think that your prints won't make it on time because you live outside the U.S., you can use a printing company (Shutterfly, Mpix etc). They are very cheap, fast and reliable.
