Tripping the Light Fantastic: Excellence in Photography – an international juried photography exhibit

I'm on the Curatorial Committee of the Cotuit Center for the Arts and wanted to let your members know about a juried art exhibition we are hosting in July with a submission deadline coming up on June 1st.

The show includes $5500 in cash prizes and will be juried by Roland Scherman, the first photographer for the Peace Corps in 1961, and chronicler of many of the iconic musical, cultural and political events of the 60’s including the 1963 Newport Folk Festival, the March on Washington, DC, the Beatles first US concert and Woodstock. In 1968 he won a Grammy Award for the cover photo of "Bob Dylan’s Greatest Hits." His photographs have appeared in Life, Look, National Geographic, Time, Paris Match, and Playboy among many others.
