Hello all -
I'm trying to get the list of venues showing photography in December finalized (figuring we should have brochures printed by mid November).
Does anyone know of any shows I should add?
Does anyone have work up in alternative space?
Does anyone want to host an open studio?
Please let me know ASAP!
Thanks,
Jen

NOPA update
The core group of the New Orleans Photographic Alliance has been hard at work hammering out the details for the upcoming CAC exhibit as well as continuing to work on the structure of the organization. We have not had any general meetings for all members, but we will be announcing one after the deadline for the CAC show. The topics we discussed at our most recent meeting of 10/13/06 held a Rue de la Course, were as follows:
1. Media-strategies to better inform the local/regional/national communities about our efforts.
2. Mission Statement-we are probably into at least our 10th revision as we continue to tweak this important statement. You would never think one short paragraphy of 2 sentences could be so time consuming.
3.Posters/Invites-we will create a limited number of posters of Bryce Lankard's stunning design for the CAC show, postcards will be created for public dispersal as well as for photographers included in the exibit, invitations for all events will utilize existing mailing lists of photographers and institutions sympathetic to our cause.
4. Formalization of our group-a search is on for a volunteer lawyer to help us with the documents.
5. Finances and reimbursements-some of us are already assuming personal debts related to the our efforts, concern was expressed about the possibity of not generating enough money to cover our mounting costs.
6. CAC opening-this event will be free with a NOPA sign-up/donation table, there is also the possibility of some bands playing that have photographers as members.
7. Logo-the name of a local designer was presented who feels he is a part of our community and is willing to work with us for a reduced fee.
8. Accomodations/fees for jurors-an offer was made from a member to use a local home to house our 2 out of town jurors, fees are still being negotiated and payment for services was explored.
9. CAC arrangements-a meeting is in the works with Johnny King and David Houston to discuss the details of finances, exhibition space, fees, sales, pr, and dates for panel discussions.
10. Benefit event-the Bridge Lounge has offered to host a benefit event for us, the consensus being that we wait till after our organization is formalized when we will then be able to actually receive tax deductable donations. An auction or prints for sale will be part of this. The time line for this would be sometime in late Spring of '07.

Vision/Re-vision: FAQs
Please read the guidelines carefully. Most questions are answered there already.
(1) Is it limited to professional photographers or can photographers of any skill level enter?
Any photographer of any level may enter.
(2) Did the photos submitted have to be taken in Louisiana as long as the photographer was and still is living in Louisiana?
Photos do NOT need to have been taken in Louisiana. They may be of any subject, style, or photographic medium. Eligible artists should live in Louisiana or have been living there before being displaced by hurricanes Katrina or Rita.
(3) In the Guidelines you ask that in the entry email we include the dimensions. Does this mean what size the printed art for the show will be?
Yes, we need to know the size of final art for space considerations.
(4) What size prints can we submit to the show is there a minimum or maximum?
Prints of any size are eligible.
(5) In the hard copy we send in do you want a copy of the pictures with it or just a list of them?
Jpegs of your submission would help, but are not required.
(6) Do the pictures have to be all the same theme or can I send in pictures of different things?
Photos may be of any subject, style, or photographic medium. However when submitting to juried shows it is usually to your advantage to chose images from a coherent body of work.
(7) Will the photos be returned to the photographer or will these photos be sold? Or is that up to the photographer to sell them?
We hope to work with the CAC to facilitate the sale of the artwork, but typically work at the CAC is for exhibition and not for sale. Artists will need to arrange for the return or pick up of their work.
(8) Do the photos have to be Katrina related?
No.
(9) Can you send me a list of everything I need to send with the photos just so I am sure I send exactly what I need?
E-mail submissions MUST include:
1) Up to 10 jpegs, at 72dpi, with largest dimension at 10 inches. Use a
sequential naming system for your submissions (i.e.,
001_YourName_ImageTitle, 002_YourName_ImageTitle, etc.)
2) Your complete contact information.
3) A list of your submissions including the jpeg number, title,
dimensions, medium, and date created.
OPTIONAL additions:
4) Artist Statement, resume, bio.
(10) If I have read the instructions correctly, I need to e-mail you the photos and snail mail a check for $35 with additional information. Do you also need a CD of the photos snail mailed to you?
Email the submissions and related info. Mail the entry fee with a copy of the same information, either in printed form or in a cd, so that we can match your submissions to your entry fee.
