This sounds great! As a long-term collector of s-f and Furry art, from s-f conventions from the 1960s and Furry conventions from 1989 onward, I applaud this effort to get our specialized art before a general public audience, and to give Furry artists an opportunity to become better known. I look forward to hearing about the results of this public Furry art exhibition.
One quibble. The submission rules for the Conbadge category says, "Conbadges are an artform unique to the furry community." No. The tradition of Furry conbadges was copied from the earlier 1960s & 1970s s-f conventions, by artists like George Barr, Bjo Trimble, and other s-f fan artists.
