    I would like to send an email with a jpeg of my submission and send the admission cheque and submission form by snail mail. I am here in Kelowna.
    Would that be acceptable or would you like me to do it a different way?

    Thanks,

    Don

    Hi Don! yes, please send jpg via email to the submissions address – snail mail is fine for the other – also you can drop it at the RCA in an envelope marked Okanagan Erotic Art Show or at Studio 113 at the RCA. Hope that helps! Julia
