Time is ticking away. Do not let the holidays get in the way of your artistic statement! All races presented in black and white photography. Details: The 567 is currently seeking entries for their January exhibit, “Black & White.” In honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, “Black & White” will feature black and white photography that explores modern-day issues of race and equality. Dr. King was an instrumental part of the Civil Rights movement that has far reaching implications for not just African-Americans, but for all races. “Black & White” may include photos that celebrate these accomplishments for all races or that address the challenges that racial minorities still face. The 567 plans to feature amateur photographers alongside professionals, so even high-quality cell phone photography may be included. Anyone who is interested in participating must e-mail a JPEG of their work to Beth Smith ([email protected]), along with their name, title of piece, and phone number, no later than December 15. Guidelines: -One to three photos per photographer may be submitted. Depending on space available, all or some of the photos may be used. The curator has the right to exclude any photo from the exhibit based on artistic quality, whether the guidelines were followed, and/or space available. -Any images submitted may be used online for advertising the exhibit. -Photo should be PG-13 (no nudity). -Photo must be framed and ready to hang upon delivery to the gallery.
