For guidelines, queries, arrangements for delivery or help fund the project contact
The park will accept paintings, drawings, sculpture, prints, mixed media, video, original fiction and non-fiction manuscripts, scores, original recordings, etc. of all styles, accommodating works deemed abandoned, unfinished, no longer valuable or marketable, garishly decorative, mediocre, pretentious, forgettable, etc. The site is meant to evolve over time depending upon the contents and the various formative and deteriorating interactions among the contents. Placement ideas for the artwork are welcome though all final decisions are made by the park administration. Before bestowing your gift, we ask all to bear in mind that this is not a dump in the sense of a drop off for waste or landfill, and encourage all to exercise good will and clarity of judgment for the benefit of the setting.
Note: works that pose an ecologically unfavorable risk will not be accepted. Preemptively, some works posing an unknown environmental threat will be protectively encased to prevent contamination to area soil and groundwater. Exceptionally over-sized artwork will be considered only upon prior review. All contributions become the property of The Serenity Repository. Contributors must sign and date the contribution application and guestbook upon completing their deposit. Please make arrangements for delivery of artwork beforehand. There are no fees for depositing artwork, however, donations are gratefully welcomed to help maintain the park.
