IU Kokomo Art Gallery’s Call for Entry:

“Rural Photography Exhibition”

 Photography is an expression of yourself and surroundings, we take pictures to create memories.  Rural relates to the countryside rather than in town.  This exhibit will provide photographers an outlet for their art and is a juried exhibition.  We live in a beautiful world, and we want to share that in our gallery.
