N.B. Click here for a video or here for a graphic on how to prepare your art work for MAG Exhibitions.
Note that work not prepared properly for hanging will be rejected. Ideally, all work should be framed and matted, and under glass or plastic, if appropriate. Artwork on stretched canvas should be framed. If you don't wish to do this yourself, ask one of the members who will be happy to direct you to the best resources.
