 THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO DISPLAY YOUR CREATIVE PHOTOGRAPHIC IMAGES
AT THE PRESTIGIOUS APG GALLERY!
BUCKHEAD . . . . . Have you ever thought you might have the opportunity to have your images hung in the same gallery with renowned fellow photographers? The annual APG Push Pin Show is the occasion you've been waiting for! Every year the gallery, home to numerous critically acclaimed exhibitions, and located in the booming Tula Arts Center building, adjacent to MOCA-GA, opens its doors to existing and new members, allotting each artist approximately a 600 square inch space (about 20 inches by 30 inches), to display their work. Images may not be matted or framed, and may be priced for sale. Image dimensions are up to the artists - perhaps one large image, or maybe several smaller images, as long as the 600 square inch image space allotment is not exceeded.
For this year's event we are thrilled to have "Suburban Angst" back to play live music, mostly modern rock favorites and deeper cuts, in the atrium during the show! Doors to open at 7:30. * Please note....
- This event is free to current members, and to photographers who join APG on the night of the show. If you've been thinking of joining APG, now is the perfect time! (Check out the other great benefits of membership here.)
- Only APG members can hang prints. The annual APG membership is $35 ($25 for students)
- $10 fee for anyone who is not an APG member. If you are not an APG member, but would still like to come hang out, enjoy the gallery, music, beer, wine and pizza, we would LOVE to have you!
NEW THIS YEAR! This year party goers can vote for their favorite prints. Top two winners will be announced in all the APG outlets (website, newsletter, Facebook, etc) and, if they decide to enter Choice, they get first pick of their wall space! |
