Hey, Kim,
Congratulations!
While I absolutely hope you painting sells, I think that it's good to keep in mind that both the sponsoring organization and the Salamagundi venue are very strong credentials for your resume. In fact, they're not available for any price - so your shipping investment is a good one, even if it's round trip.

That's great Kim!
Wish I had a chance to go, but the hours are'nt gonna work for me. I was gonna be in the area Wed, Nov 10 morning, but have to be out before 10am. As Chris said, the exposure should cover the pain of shipping.

Thanks Chris & Jimmie -
Chris, I am glad you posted that...it is hard to know if any of these competitions are worth it if you are unfamiliar with the venue. You can look on a website, but that doesn't tell you if the name of the organization means anything to anyone or not. Sometimes they are small little town organizations and it feels like it was wasted money/time. This is good - at least you made me feel like my investment might be worthwhile!

Hi Kim,
Through a twist of fate I may actually be there for the reception. If I am, I'll stand in front of your painting and rant and rave about your work. I'll definitely get by to see it later and I'll take photos for you. (I hear there's so little going on in NY that I'm glad to get suggestions for things to do.)
This is a wonderful venue to show your work and a terrific artist credential for you in getting gallery representation. It's worth the money to get this there and back. Congratulations!
Jimmie, maybe I can meet up with you early Wednesday, I'll email you privately.

Ohhh Linda - cool! Thank you! A little help making me look good is always appreciated. 
But - my invitation says the reception is the 7th, but the website I just noticed says the 2nd. They do not answer calls or emails except on Tuesdays.... the 2nd is not a Sunday though - so that should be the typo!

Congratulations Kim,
It is indeed a very snooty venue and a great credential.
I have never entered, as they do not accept billboards or ladies with green hair.
