In keeping with the goals and vision of the Doylestown Photography Club, it is important as photographers that we periodically seek out the experience of exhibition and exposure of our work to the public. As our club “Exhibitionist,” Chris John has secured a wonderful exhibition space at Advanced Medical Solutions for members of the Club to display and sell their work. This is great opportunity for those of you who have never exhibited your work to do so. The goals of this exhibition event are many: To gain exposure as a credible photography club in the community, secure a venue to get our work into the public eye, and lastly, to fulfill another club goal: Personal growth…together.
Who can enter?
Only Doylestown Photography Club members can submit work to the exhibition.
How many photos can you enter?
We are asking members to submit a total of five pieces of art for consideration either via email or in print.
What type of work are you looking for?
Content should probably reflect a calm and tranquil feel, since this will be displayed in a holistic facility. Some subjects to consider may be flowers, birds and landscapes, but be creative!
How to submit photos via email for the photo exhibition:
1. Title each file (photo) maximum 5 photos
2. Resize it to 800px on the longest dimension, jpeg files only
3. Email it to chrisjohn@cjpix.com by March 7th
4. It would be great if you could zip it and name it with your email.
How to submit printed photos for the photo exhibition:
Submitted pieces should be framed and matted, signed and titled. Chris will make wall plates indicating the specifications as well as the price. Submissions may range in size, anything from 8×10 to 20×30.

If your work is accepted into the exhibition:

2. The limit to frame size is 24 x 36
3. There will not be any commissions given to the DPC or to Advanced Medical Solutions.
4. Pictures will be hung by various voluteers the Thursday prior to the First Friday show. I already have a few. If you want to volunteer please let me know.
5. Pricing should be from $125 to $500
6. Art will be removed and and returned to artists by volunteers. (details later)
