Dear OPA Exhibiting Artist,
Congratulations on your acceptance into this year’s Western Regional Exhibition held at the Phippen Museum, October 12 – January 5, 2025. Please read the following instructions closely as they include important information regarding the exhibition. OPA and Phippen Museum look forward to receiving your painting.
Important Information!
Prepare Your Pre-Paid Return Shipping Label
OPA requires that you include a pre-paid shipping label to cover the return shipment of your painting if it is not sold. And, please do not forget to insure your painting!
There are two ways to send your label:
1. Include a paid, printed return shipping label with a bar code and send it in with your painting. Be sure to use the colored envelope to make it easy for the gallery to see your label.
2. Email your pre-paid shipping label directly to Phippen Museum at jeannette@phippenartmuseum.org. Be sure when you email your label that you include your name in the subject line. Example: “John Michael Carter – Return Shipping Label”.

OPA and Phippen Museum highly recommend you obtain insurance for your artwork while in transit.

One option to consider is ShipandInsure which offers OPA members insurance and discounts on Federal Express.
