    Glass or Plexi-Glass
    Folks, it's a safety matter. Glass is heavy and very breakable. If you want to hang your art please consider that accidents can happen, not just of your art but to our visitors, volunteers, and staff as well.  It doesn't matter if it is a large piece or a small piece it is still breakable.

    The rule is to use plexi-glass. There will be no exceptions.
