Will he win every prize??

Now until June 20th

Send your digital snapshots to artistsrunscavhunt@gmail.com.

Don't forget to label them with the clue number and format them so

they are 5" x 4" (360 x 288 pixels) and low res (72 dpi).

The Rules, or... HOW THIS WORKS:

• Items on The List, whether they are locations, objects or activities, must be represented by a digital photograph unless otherwise noted. There are a few instances where we have requested items to be represented in paper form (like #1) in which case you will bring these with you to the Award Day on June 20th.


• No one expects you to complete every item on The List. Not that we don’t believe in you! But that’s why we included more than you need. Some of the clues are right in front of you every day. Others are seemingly impossible feats or only known to people that have been in this town way too long. And there is everything in between.


• Each item is worth up to 10 points. You will be given 1 to 5 points based on accuracy and 1 to 5 points for creativity. Bonus points are given for the more entertaining (for us) and difficult (for you) endeavors. These cases are noted in the clues.


• All digital photographs must be emailed to artistsrunscavhunt@gmail.com in the resolution of 72 dpi and scaled to be NO LARGER than 5” x 4” (that would be 360 x 288 pixels.) Pictures will be available for public viewing at http://artistsrunscavhunt.blogspot.com/


• When emailing the digital photographs you must identify your photo with the corresponding item number and your name or your Scavenger Hunt alias. You can send them one by one, or in batches, or all at once. Doesn’t matter really. Just make sure they’re marked with the information we need.


• You can re-size the photos of course, but do not Photoshop! No effects, swirls, fades, sparkles, color boosts, added text, etc. They should be simple snapshots.


• Screen shots are lame. We don’t want any.


• First prize will be awarded to the player who scored the most points. Second and Third place prizes will be awarded to the runners-up. First prize is a Membership Package that includes one-year memberships to all of the following: The Art Institute of Chicago, The Museum of Contemporary Art, Hyde Park Art Center and threewalls. The Second prize winner will receive the T-shirt of their choice from Imperfect Articles. Third prize is a set of four re-issued STANDARD pint glasses. Lucky winners indeed!


• You must be present at the Award Day to receive your prize. Otherwise, how would we know who you are?


• Judges are not allowed to offer any assistance to players and we do not accept bribes. Although we may consider payouts in the form of Sacagawea dollars for the newly exorbitant parking meters.


• Do not break the law in order to accomplish a Scavenger Hunt item. We will not take responsibility if you end up in the clink. Use your powers of charm to obtain access to places and get your pictures, not force.

Kickoff on Sunday May 10th! 3:00 to 5:00 p.m.

Tomorrow at the opening of Artists Run Chicago at the Hyde Park Art Center we will announce the release of the 1/Quarterly Scavenger Hunt List. Here's an advanced release for this blog's audience.
