Insurance Coverage*

Fine art insurance coverage provided by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is All Risk, “Wall-to-Wall, Nail-to-Nail” coverage subject to the exclusions: natural corrosion of material, gradual deterioration, wear & tear, war, regular mail shipments above $1,000, nuclear reaction and radiation, artwork in unattended unlocked vehicles and non-enclosed vehicles, and artwork located in restaurants.

You may choose to either:

Elect fine art insurance coverage provided by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill for the maximum amount of the price (or value) listed above.
Waive fine art insurance coverage provided by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Insurance will be provided by the artist.

Loan Agreement*

Under terms of this agreement, object(s) of this loan will receive the care and respect that is necessary to ensure the integrity of the object(s). Object(s) borrowed will remain in the possession of the Borrower (the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's North Carolina Botanical Garden, or NCBG) for the specified time of this Agreement. Any extension of the loan must be approved in writing by both parties and covered by any needed extension of the insurance coverage.

Borrower may examine, measure, and photograph the object(s) for educational and non-commercial purposes using the credit line indicated on page 1 of this form for label and publication purposes.

The object(s) may be photographed by visitors for their own personal purposes.

Loaned objects shall be held and returned in the same condition in which they are received by the Borrower. Damage to the objects while in the Borrower’s custody, either during shipment or at their facility, will be reported immediately to the Lender’s designate. No measure of repair, beyond immediate stabilization during a catastrophe, will be undertaken by the Borrower.

Artifacts shall be insured for the amount specified herein by the Borrower under its wall-to-wall fine arts policy. Insurance will be obtained in the amount specified by the Lender which must reflect current market value. If the Lender fails to indicate an amount, the Borrower, with implied concurrence of the Lender, will set a value for the purpose of insurance for the period of the loan. This is not to be considered an appraisal by the Borrower.

If the Lender elects to maintain its own insurance coverage, the Borrower must be supplied with a certificate of insurance waiving the rights of subrogation against the Borrower. If insurance is waived by the Lender, this waiver shall constitute agreement of the Lender to release and hold harmless the Borrower from any liability for damage or loss of the loaned materials. The amount payable by insurance secured in accordance with this loan agreement is the sole recovery available to the Lender from the Borrower in event of loss or damage.

It is the responsibility of the Lender or his/her designee to promptly notify the Borrower in writing if there is any change in ownership of the items or change of address of the Lender. The Borrower assumes no responsibility to search for the Lender or it’s designee who cannot be reached at the address of record.

It is understood and agreed that, except for those rights specifically set forth in this agreement, nothing herein shall give the borrower any right, title or interest in the object(s) which are the sole and exclusive property of the Lender.

I have read and accept all conditions of this agreement.

Participation Agreement*

Images submitted for consideration may be used by the North Carolina Botanical Garden for publicity purposes, and submission constitutes agreement to the use of your image for such purposes.

I understand that the decisions of the North Carolina Botanical Garden and the jurors are final and, if accepted, agree to abide by the event’s rules and regulations.

I do hereby discharge the North Carolina Botanical Garden of and from all manner of actions, suits, damages, claims, and property while participating in the 2023 Sculpture in the Garden exhibit.

I agree to the above terms.
