15th Anniversary Photo Salon Show with Guest Curator Michael Johnson | June 28 - July 19
In the summer of 2011, Featherstone began collaborating with Michael Johnson to welcome photographers to present their work and discuss their creative process with fellow photographers and art enthusiasts.  Over the last fifteen years, the Photographers Salon has hosted 61 artists who have generously given their time and talents on Tuesday evenings each summer and created opportunities for new and emerging photographers to learn, share, and grow through our Open Salons.  To celebrate this milestone and the artists who have made these Salons possible, we are inviting past participants to return to Featherstone and exhibit together in the Francine Kelly Gallery.
