All potential members are selected through a two-part jury
process to ensure their craft is of a good standard. Works will be reviewed by
e-mailed jpeg photographs in the first stage. Those meeting basic standards
will be asked to present their work in person for the final jury stage.
Notification will be sent by e-mail within a week of jurying. Visual arts and fine crafts must be of original design.
All work must be original work or limited edition prints
based on the artist’s original work. All
work must be made in accordance with our Statement of Purpose. Locally produced food items, music items and
other non-traditional items made by the exhibitor are eligible for the jury
process. If you are uncertain whether your work qualifies, please contact the Standards
Committee.
Cotton themed items or items from other locally indigenous
flora are eligible for the jury process.
Crafts produced from commercial kits; commercial patterns,
molds and forms; any item violating copyrights; plants (except Bonsai), books,
polished rocks, decoupage and similar items; hobby crafts, shell crafts,
country crafts, decal crafts, silk or dried floral arrangements, mass-produced
items, commercial re-sales. No work made from commercial stencils or
prefabricated forms. No copies of masters, advertisements or widely distributed
photos. The Artisans of the South Carolina Tobacco Trail does not condone the
use of material considered endangered or threatened. At the discretion of its
Standards Committee or the Board, the use of purchased, manufactured items may
disqualify an entry. Work produced in a class or workshop is not eligible to be
juried or shown.
