The Northwestern Regional Library is pleased to announce our upcoming 12th annual traveling photography contest reception to be held on April 10, 2018 at the Charles H. Stone Memorial Library in Pilot Mountain.

The contest was open to all registered patrons of the member libraries of Northwestern Regional Library System. A person may register for a library card at any branch library in Allegany, Stokes, Surry, or Yadkin counties.

All submitted images were created using film or digital camera. Categories included color, black and white, digitally altered and abstract. The contest was open to youths ages 5-17 and adults.

A workshop will be held at 5:30 pm before the reception. Linda Weaver will present a workshop entitled “The Life of a Photographer/Artist”, topics including how to market one’s photography and how to present art and photos. The reception will start at 6:45 pm with heavy hors d’oeuvres. Awards will be presented afterwards. Both events are free and open to the public. A portion of the photos will travel to all member libraries throughout the upcoming year.
