2024 Visionarios Teacher Instructions

TEACHER INSTRUCTIONS

Follow these steps to prepare and submit Visionarios entries.

1. Sturdily mount and preferably mat entries and make any framed entries ready to hang with monofilament line or wire. Please DO NOT USE GLASS in framed work. Unframed works will be displayed using push pins. Entries must be no larger than 30″ in length or width and protrude no more than 4″ from the wall.
2.  Complete a STUDENT ENTRY FORM for each student work being entered. You may either type into the PDF using Adobe Acrobat Reader or print and fill out by hand.
3. Send a PARENT NOTIFICATION LETTER and completed STUDENT ENTRY FORM home with each student participant to be signed by his/her parent (if under 18).
4. MAKE 2 COPIES (for a total of 3) of the signed STUDENT ENTRY FORM. Affix one copy to the back of each entry, turn in the original to Museum staff upon delivery of work, and keep one copy for your records.
5. Send your Teacher Entry information by completing the ONLINE TEACHER SUBMISSION FORM; make sure to add each student’s information and his/her written statement. Submit the form online BEFORE bringing student entries to Museum so that we may have a checklist upon your arrival.
6. If you are unable to use the ONLINE TEACHER SUBMISSION FORM for some reason, please find the TEACHER ENTRY FORM in Adobe PDF format. Fill out by hand (please print) or use Adobe Acrobat Reader DC (see instructions below) and email to AMSTed@tamucc.edu BEFORE delivering entries to Museum so that we may have a checklist upon your arrival.
7. Deliver your entries to the Art Museum of South Texas, 1902 N. Shoreline Blvd. beginning February 22nd from 9 am – 5:30 pm and ending February 23rd from 9 am – 6 pm. All-level entries will be accepted during this time. Please make sure that you have a STUDENT ENTRY FORM attached to the back of each entry AND the original to hand in to Museum staff upon delivery. Entries will not be accepted before February 22nd or after February 23rd.
8. Upon delivery, you will receive a Certificate of Participation for each entrant, as well as invitations for entrants to attend the Visionarios Family Day and Awards Presentation on April 7, 2024, 1-4 pm. Please deliver these items to your students.
9. Email AMSTed@tamucc.edu or contact the Education Department at 361.825.3504 if you have any questions.
