The University of Mississippi Portfolio Day and Art Merit Awards Applications for Art Merit Awards are available below and include all the information necessary to apply. Portfolio folders may be purchased at an art supply store or constructed by hand. Expensive ones are made of plastic or leaterh with carrying handles and a zipper. Cardboard, chip board, or matte board may be used for the sides.
Tape is used for the hinge along one side.
Bookbinders' tape is the best. Attach ribbon ties on the open edges to contain the work. Drill or bunch holes, insert half of the tie, glue end down flat on the inside. Print your name, address, High School or Community College on the outside. The size of the portfolio should be big enough to protect the contents.
