1772 Foundation Project
Mary Anthony, Executive Director of the 1772 Foundation has enlisted the help of QVPC photographers in decorating the walls of their new space in the Montgomery Ward building in downtown Putnam. We are embarking on a very fun project as we contact the historians in several nearby towns to locate interesting sites in their towns that may not be well known to the general population. Our mission is to photograph the sites, obtain information about the sites, present them to Mary for final printing, matting and framing.
At the conclusion of the project (June at the latest), the Foundation will host a reception for the photographers and guests to view the images as they are displayed in the beautiful, gallery like setting.
Town coordinators are:
Brooklyn and Woodstock – Lori Labrecque
Eastford and Union – Suzanne Buell
Killingly and Sterling – Jeff Graley
Putnam – Jim Cutler
Plainfield – Diane LeBlanc
Hampton – Marcia Kilpatrick
Pomfret – Leslie Atsales
Thompson – Charlie Perry
Any club member is invited and encouraged to contact any one or more of the coordinators to go out and photograph with them. Photography reflects our vision of a place, scene or object. Lend your vision to the project!!
