Every week the Galleries Director or TA will change the combination to the lock box and communicate this new combination to:

 Note: Keys are to remain in the lockbox so others have access to the space.

  • De-install: Friday at 3pm-4pm
  • Installation: 4pm to 5pm or until finished

2. HELP WITH INSTALLING, DE-INSTALLING, LOAN AGREEMENTS AND TOOLS

  • It is essential to schedule ART 460/560 students to come help with install and de-installation duties on the first day of class.
  • Between 4-5pm, the Gallery Director or TA will check-in the incoming artists by collecting a Loan Agreement from each of the them.
  • It is good if the Galleries Director has extra loan agreements and tool check out agreements on hand for artists to fill out.

3. KEYS AND MAINTAINING SECURITY

  • KEYS are to remain in the lockbox so others have access to the space.
  • Students check out tools from the large tool closet. Tools will also be collected on the cart.
  • Artists will be given the combination to the lock box but not the key in the binder to the tool closet. This is because they must check out all the tools from the Galleries Director or the T.A.
