Photographers of Vashon exhibition this weekend
At the beginning of this year, even though I don’t actually live on the island anymore, I finally pulled the photographers of Vashon Island out of the woodwork to create a new group. My goals included a community darkroom, which hasn’t quite materialized yet, but we’ve accomplished lots of other fun events!
Back in May, we held a photo review, with more advanced photographers reviewing the work of the less experienced to give advice, critique, and feedback. It was a wonderful event, with 6 reviewers and 12 reviewees swapping chairs around the room for an afternoon.
In June, we put together a juried group exhibition at the Blue Heron Gallery “Uncommon Views of Vashon”, and now we have another group show as part of the Vashon Holiday Arts Studio Tour. This show includes 14 photographers, and is located in a gorgeous spot; the house designed by architect Ibsen Nelsen, with a fabulous view and stunning interior space. The show is open this coming weekend, Dec 10 & 11, from 10-4, at #17 on the tour: vashonislandartstudiotour.com/holiday2005/map/ Come by and say hi!
