I dropped off my photo in Lowell yesterday for the upcoming exhibit called Alienation.  I was told that the jurors only accepted 40 pieces for the show and only 8 from Massachusetts.  I am looking forward to the reception on September 10th at the Loading Dock Gallery.  The gallery is very nice.  It’s in one of the old mill buildings that have been refurbished into art studios.  Hope to see you at the show!
