Artist Consignment Agreement:

By submitting my work, I have read agree to the following terms:

• The Jansen Art Center reserves the right to hang and display all consigned art on our walls and in our virtual galleries.

• All art will be for sale unless noted otherwise. The artist determines the retail price, which cannot be changed after signing this agreement.

• Occasionally there are reasons that the purchaser requests to take the artwork prior to the end of the exhibit. Staff have the permission to use their discretion in these circumstances.

• The artist will receive a commission split of 60% of the retail price and the Jansen Art Center will receive 40%.  The Jansen Art Center will collect and pay 100% of the sales tax based on the selling price.

• Upon the sale of art, payment will be mailed by the 15th of the following month.

• The Jansen Art Center does not ship artwork. Artists are responsible for picking up their work or arranging for return shipment.

• The Jansen Art Center assumes full responsibility of work lost, stolen, or damaged while in our possession from the date of delivery to the art center through 30 days following the exhibit closing upon which time the Artist Consignment Agreement expires.

• Requests for items to be left longer than this time must be approved by a Jansen Art Center staff member. Work left unclaimed after 30 days becomes the property of the Jansen Art Center. The Jansen Art Center will not pay for missing items after the Consignment Agreement has expired.
