A.  When you buy any piece for $20 you have the option of paying an extra $5 to have the work mailed to you, or you may choose to to pick up the artwork during normal gallery hours (Wed. - Sun. 1-5pm).

Q.  Who submitted art to this show?
A.  6x6x2009 was an exhibition of thousands of original artworks, made and donated by celebrities, international and local artists, designers, college students, youths, and YOU. Art was submitted by over 1,100 from 17 countries and 36 US states.

Q.  Why was this called the "second and final year" for such a fun exhibition?
A.  As a contemporary art institution it is our goal to always look forward and try new things. We asked every visitor of the 6x6x2009 exhibition if we should have another 6x6 exhibition. Resoundingly, you answered YES! You can view the 2010 online gallery now. Summer 2011 will be very different (we promise) stay tuned!

Q.  Where does the money from the "sale" of my piece(s) go?
A.  All proceeds benefit Rochester Contemporary Art Center. This is a fun initiative that brings together a diverse group of people. It is also an important fundraiser that enables thoughtful contemporary art programming.

Q.  Do the artists find out who purchased their artwork?
A.  Not from Rochester Contemporary Art Center. The buyer receives a customer receipt with the artist's name and contact information. The buyer may then contact the artist. Due to the scale of this exhibition we are not able to provide the buyer's information to each artist.

Q.  If the piece I submitted has not sold, do I get it back?
A.  No. All unsold works are currently for sale in the 6x6x2009 Online Gallery. We reserve the right to sell works for less than $20.

Q.  I submitted artworks to past 6x6 exhibitions. Will those be exhibited in the future?
A.  No. Unsold artworks from 2008 and 2009 will be available for purchase, but not installed.

Q.  How many artworks were submitted?
A.  3,077 artworks were displayed in the 6x6x2009 exhibition, which ran from June 6 to July 12, 2009. 2009's show featured 1,500 more artworks than 2008 and all were displayed and offered for sale.

Q.  All artworks?
A.  Rochester Contemporary Art Center reserved the right to reject any artwork that we determined to be inappropriate or too difficult to install.
