I found out that two of my submitted works for 12 Angry Women were juried into the show! Apparently there were about 370 entered pieces, and 47 were juried in overall (about 12.7% acceptance). Getting two of five submissions (40%) makes me feel pretty good about this.The two pieces that made it were Vapor, and The Bottom (both of which have appeared here before).
So, the show runs from 26 September to 24 October, at The Soundry, located at 316 Dominion Ave in Vienna, VA. The Soundry is open every day from 10am to 10pm (hallelujah for good hours!). In addition to being a gallery, it is also an artists studio, performance space (music, poetry), and a coffee shop. Please come by and invite all your friends!
Unfortunately, I won't be attending the opening, because I'll be on a trip through southern Utah - hitting Zion, Bryce Canyon, and Escalante with another photographer friends from Cedar Rapids. I'll be sure to update the blog when I get back.
The next show I'm submitting for is being put on by The Soundry, a relatively new gallery/studio/performance space/cafe that's opened up in Vienna, VA. The gist of the show is that only male artists are eligible to submit, and the jury is composed of 12 women. There's no restriction on medium, so we'll see if any of my photos make it in.
