BEDFORD – Calling all amateur photographers. The Limestone Heritage Festival is seeking entries for the 2024 Photo Contest.
The emphasis, of course, will be on limestone photos. Photos of Limestone in Nature, Limestone in Architecture, and General Limestone can be entered into the contest.
There are two age divisions: adults and youth under 16.
Prizes will be awarded in the three limestone categories, and a People’s Choice award will be given to each division. The Peoples Choice winner in the adult division will receive $100, and the youth division winner will receive $50.
Entries should be at least 5×7 and no larger than 11×14. They should also be mounted on a sturdy backing or framed. Images should be single-frame, not composite, and should not be heavily modified.
Each photo submitted to the contest has a $5 entry fee.
The north entrance of the Lawrence County Museum will be open from 4-8 p.m. on Thursday, June 27. Entries will be on display from noon until 8 p.m. on Friday, June 28, and from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, June 29. Entries may be picked up after 3 p.m. on Saturday or during museum hours the following week.
