 We
are seeking images of your art - paintings,
drawings, prints, sculpture, your photos or poems.
Where will we post it?
To the
Poetry
or Visual Arts
page and sometimes also on a topic page when the subject seems
to fit.
How to submit it?
Send an
email
with an image file attached
(such as JPG format)
OR Send a link (website address) to the image that already
exists on the Internet, again by
email
Subject matter?
Any subject matter is fine, but subjects relating to
the lymphoma experience (symbolically or otherwise) would be
ideal.
We reserve the right to
exclude submitted work that could be judged offensive.

Send image file: attached as an
image file (jpg, etc) or provide link by

1) Title (untitled
if not specified)
2) Author's initials (we will no longer include author

We have changed our policy here because privacy wishes may
change over time.

Privacy Policy (10/2011)
By default we provide only the initials
of the artists who submit work in order to protect your privacy.
If your image or poem includes identifiable information (such as a
self-portrait) we ask that you provide a signed note giving Patients
Against Lymphoma permission to post your visual art on our website.
We require authorization also if you wish your full name to be
included with your work - but only if the art or title communicates
your health status.
We have adopted this policy because it may be against HIPPA law for
our organization to disclose medical information about individuals
without written permission.
Please note that we do not recommend posting identifiable
information related to your medical condition because your privacy
concerns can change over time. For example, next year you may
discover that published information about your diagnosis will make
it more challenging to find employment.
(You can fax the authorization to
disclose your name to 801-409-5736)
Sale of art?
You cannot sell your art directly through us,
but viewers can contact you to inquire about a sale if you
indicate it's okay to contact you by email.
You might consider
designating PAL
as the recipient of some percentage of the art you sell in this
way, or art that you sell on eBay using the
Missionfish program,
as we are a participating organization. We definitely need
the financial support!
