Pay for your entries - Visit the 3rd floor reception desk of the Rubin Center to pay for your entries and receive an official label for the jurying process. Payment can be made by cash or credit/debit card. Each entry costs $4.00. Unpaid entries will not be considered by the jurors. All entries must have been previously submitted by the April 6th deadline using the online form. No new entries will be accepted on this date.
Set up your artwork for jurying in the designated areas. You can check in either with your studio professors or the Rubin Center staff to confirm where your artworks should be displayed. Be sure that your official label is visible directly adjacent to the work on display.
Logo designs can be prepared for jurying by printing and mounting. If your logo is selected you may be asked to provide a vector file so they can be printed on vinyl for exhibition.
Posters will be mounted in the gallery with magnets or clips. Please consult with your graphic design professors regarding ideal poster dimensions for display. Be sure to indicate the final desired size on the label if you are presenting posters for jurying in a smaller size than they would be printed for the exhibition.
Website and animation design will be displayed on computers in the space. Please bring USB to the Rubin Center.
If you have any additional questions about how to prepare your posters, stationary, branding projects, or other graphic design entries – please discuss these with your professors or reach out to Rubin Center staff.
