As a small token of my appreciation, the first 50 artists whose jpegs are accepted chose an ATC; all artists accepted after the first 50 were entered in a drawing for the last ten ATCs.
All artists whose collages are acquired by patrons will be entered in a random drawing for the following donated prizes, generously donated by Friends of FFAC, as a thank-you for shipping the collages to patrons.
