Crooked Tree's Juried Photography 2010, Based on Watershed Awareness

The Crooked Tree Arts Center’s 29th annual Photography Exhibition will be 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, the Leelanau Conservancy and the Watershed Center of Grand Traverse Bay to create an exhibition with images taken solely on these watershed lands.  The exhibition is open to all Michigan photographers 18 years or older and/or members of the Crooked Tree Arts Center.  To obtain more information on the three watershed councils and view maps that highlight the regions in the exhibition, go to www.watershedcouncil.org, www.theconservancy.com or www.gtbay.org.
