Regulations

  1. Exhibitors must comply with all general rules and regulations for exhibitors.

  2. It is the goal of the Liberal Arts Department to provide opportunities for interested individuals of all ages to participate. Some contests, however, may designate “amateur only” or “professional only”. For this purpose, professional shall be one who currently derives their supportive income from the same skills involved in the competition. Amateur shall be all others.

  3. All articles or products must be the work of the exhibitor.

  4. Articles must be completed since September 1, 2020 (within the last 3 years) and not previously shown at the Northwest Missouri State Fair.

  5. Preservation must be less than one (1) year since process date and will not be opened.

  6. Only ONE (1) entry or exhibit in each numbered class unless stated otherwise.

  7. To simplify entering, judging, and displaying, any articles entered in Liberal Arts must be described on entry blank by color, design or description. Entry tags will be completed by the exhibitor and the lower part will be used as claim checks.

  8. Exhibits will be received at the Liberal Arts building on Wednesday August 30th, between the hours of 12 noon and 6:00 pm only. Entries must be left in place until Monday, September 4th and must be picked up between 3:00 pm and 4:30 pm, as building will close at that time.

Persons taking articles without permission and/or by mistake will assume the full responsibility of expense for their return to the rightful owner. Exhibitors and/or persons will be required to check out all articles taken by them.

  9. Exhibits are judged according to merit. Judges will not be required to give an award if, in their opinion, an award is not merited. Judges will have the liberty to disqualify an exhibit for judging if, in their opinion, the exhibitor has not complied with the rules as set forth in this department or exhibit is entered in the wrong class. In all instances, the decision of the judges is final.

  10. All articles will be under the control of the Superintendent and care will be taken to prevent loss or damage, but in no event will Bethany Fair, Inc or the personnel in charge of this department be responsible for loss or damage that might occur.
