->> Region 8 of the National Press Photographers Association will host the following event Saturday, August 21, 2010:
Telling Their Stories: Five Years Later, 50 Iconic Images
The Lingering Legacy of the Katrina Photographs
"When photographers converged on the convention center in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, survivor Angela Perkins cried out, "Thank God, the press is here.”
Her words expressed a sentiment that characterizes the storytelling and relationships between the people of the Gulf Coast and the media that developed in the months that followed.
On Saturday, August 21, a juried exhibit of Katrina imagery will open at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art coinciding with the 5-year anniversary of the disaster.
The National Press Photographers Association invites you to the opening of this exhibit, and a program of workshops exploring the past, present and future of visual storytelling of Gulf Coast disasters."
If you are interested in submitting photographs for the exhibit or have other questions or interest, please go to: http://tellingtheirstories.com/ |
