Call for Photos for Our Fall Exhibit
MYSTERIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES…will feature:
Marvelous vintage mystery books from our collection,
a selection of curated artwork (stay tuned for more about THAT, this part is NOT by open call) and a Rogue’s gallery of Black Sheep family photos from YOU!
This show will be a bit different- in a fun, spooky, and whodunit-way, and we are gathering a cast of characters for our portrait wall directly from your family albums!
What Do We Want?
Weird, wonderful, dodgy, glamorous and just plain strange portraits of ancestors past to cluster on our wall.
Do you have one we can share?
We can print from your scan (we know family memorabilia can be precious) or we can scan it ourselves ( we will be VERY CAREFUL) or we can show your ornately framed beauties as they are.
How to participate:
Email us a picture (don’t worry about the quality yet- a quick phone shot is fine) with any information you have about the person and their relation to you that you might want to share- this will go in our exhibit binder.
The show will run from October- December 2023
Please send all entries no later that September 20, 2023 with “Eccentric” in the subject line to gallery@institutelibrary.org
THANK YOU FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION!
This show will be curated by Maxim Schmidt & Martha Willette Lewis with book input from the wonderful staff and volunteers at the library.
Stay tuned for more on this show.
