Beginning this year, the invitational will be split into two exhibits one for photography (July 5 through 31) and the other for the remaining arts (Aug. 2 through 31). The second change, which is not anticipated to be a permanent one, requires that artists working in all mediums, photography included, submit slides of their works for jurying. Curator Valerie Kidrick said, While we dont plan to make this an annual requirement for inclusion in the show, we need to eliminate artists who dont respond (with slides) and open the doors to others who may not be included in our files. Entry deadline is April 2. More information is available from the gallery (586-5432- ).
