The call for entries has been established for the Crooked Tree Arts Center’s 29th Annual Photography Exhibition accepting works in early January 2010 with the theme set on watershed awareness. CTAC is working in cooperation with the Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council based in Petoskey, the Leelanau Conservancy, and the Watershed Center of Grand Traverse Bay to create an exhibition with images taken solely on these watershed lands.
Northern Michigan waters define the character of our region and the way of life for its residents. Despite their beauty, our waters are quite fragile. The future of our waters ultimately depends on what we do today to protect and restore them. “By bringing attention to the cause of these watershed councils and focusing on the beauty as well as the fragility of the area in which we live, this exhibition hopes to honor and preserve our resources” explains Gail DeMeyere, Visual Arts/Education Director at CTAC.
"Just because the photographs need to be created on watershed land does not mean that all images have to have water in them. This is merely a reference point from which to spring forward” states DeMeyere.
The 29th Annual Juried Photography Exhibition is open to all Michigan photographers 18 years or older and/or members of the Crooked Tree Arts Center.
