CALL TO ARTISTS: Photoslam 2011 at PHOTOSTOP Gallery in White River Junction

Wanted: Students, Pros, Amateurs, & Photo fanatics!

PHOTOSTOP Gallery announces a call for entries to its second annual UV PhotoSlam 2011, which will be on exhibit in the Gallery from April 1 - 22, 2011.

The PhotoSlam will be a community-wide photo happening for residents or part-time residents of the Upper Valley region. Photographers of all ages and experience levels are encouraged to enter. PHOTOSTOP is hoping to create a unique exhibition for the Upper Valley, showcasing the wide variety of photographs residents of all ages from the area are making and to provide a way that photographers can share them with each other. Last year's PhotoSlam 2010 exhibited 240 photographs submitted by 140 photographers aged 3 to 93!

Each photographer who enters work in the show will have at least one image printed and displayed in the Gallery. An opening reception with refreshments is scheduled for April 1 from 5-8 pm. Entry is by the submission of digital files and the Gallery will print the submitted photographs. The standard entry fee is $20 and $10 for photographers 17 and under, which will help defray the cost of the printed photographs and other exhibition expenses.

For an entry form and details go to: www.photostopvt.com and download the application form (available 2/8) or e-mail the gallery at photostopvt@gmail.com for further details. The deadline for entries is March 7th.

PHOTOSTOP Gallery is located in Suite 150 on the first floor of the Tip Top Media Arts Building, 85 North Main Street, White River Jct., VT 05001.
