LA PLATA COUNTY FAIR PHOTO SHOW

As of now, the La Plata County Fair is scheduled for August 11-15, and plans to be open to the public. As of now, we will have a photo show, so folks need to be preparing prints if they want to enter.

Submittal criteria

  • You can submit up to 3 photos, any size, but no larger than 16"x20"x 3/8". (no frames), and NO watermark.

  • Choose your category carefully (categories listed below).

  • There is a new level "Professional", for those who sell their artwork professionally.

  • Prints should be on a mat board of some kind.   No frames are allowed.  Photos should be ready to hang. Hangers will be available on-site for a small fee, but entrants must be aware there is no guarantee that photos will not fall if hangers come of.

  • Check-in for photos will be Wednesday, August 11 from 7:30 am to 6:00 pm.

  • Photo pick up will be Sunday, August 15 from 2:00 pm until 5:00 pm. Photos not picked up by this time will be left at the Fairgrounds and may be discarded by Fair Custodial Staff.

 

Also, we will need volunteers to help:

  • set up the show on Saturday, August 07 in the afternoon at a time TBD

  • to check in all day Wednesday the 11th and to break down the booth Sunday the 15th at 2:00 pm.

  • Volunteers will also be needed to man the booth during Fair hours to prevent theft/damage to the exhibit as well as to answer any questions about the Durango Photo Club

  • many volunteers will be needed Saturday night, the 14th to count the votes for the "People's Choice" Award.

 

In July, we will be sending out a Sign-Up Genius form that volunteers can use to sign up for their desired time.
