Club Project Presentation

Theme: Shapes
Date: May 17, 2012, 7:30 pm
Manassas City Hall
9027 Center Street
Old Town Manassas, VA

The Manassas-Warrenton Camera Club, as part of the Prince William County Council for the Arts, will take part in “Arts Alive 2012”, a celebration of the arts organizations in the county. This is an annual event that allows arts organizations to market their activities and build support for the arts and their own organization.

The event will take place at the Hylton Center for the Performing Arts, on May 6, 2012, from Noon to 6:00 PM. The club, with other visual arts groups, will display both print and digital images in the atrium/lobby of the Center. Beside the display, MWCC will have an area where members can assist attendees with their photography related questions and problems. A Volunteer sign–up sheet for staffing the display, and/or assisting attendees will be at all meetings in April. Club membership participation is essential for making this event a success.

The club will display digital images from this year’s competition that received a 7 or above in a slideshow format.  We expect to be able to display up to 20 prints, depending on their size, on our display rack. Club members will be allowed to sell their images, but we must have the makers name, sales information, and image title, and, for digital images, the maker’s contact information to handle a sale.  The print images will be collected at the meetings in April.  All print images, 8 x 10 or up to 11 by 14 inches, must be matted with plastic eyes for hanging them attached to the back of the matt.
