§ Pedestals will be provided to members for a $15 fee. The artist must arrange to pick up and return the pedestal to the TSA storage location in Addison (details to be provided when the artist requests use of pedestal). The purpose of the fee is for maintenance of the current pedestal inventory and to have new ones made with funds collected by the “usage” fee. Members may provide their own pedestals. There are a limited number of pedestals, and will be rented out on a first come/first served basis. Arrangements to pick up the pedestal at the TSA storage facility in Addison must be made with one of the show chairs. Every effort will be made to accommodate your sculpture to display it most favorably.

§ Contact Deana Hinchcliff, primal_earth@sbcglobal.net, 214-738-6893 to make pedestal arrangements.
