CMMS and CMSHS invite photographers to submit photographs related to North American Indians to our annual Photography Contest and Exhibition. We are seeking photographs that transcend simple snapshots and that evoke the spirit of the North American Indian, their people, character, events, objects, symbols, environments, and past or present culture.
Judging will occur during our Wine and Cheese Opening Reception on October 8, 2011 6:30 pm. This is a free event, but RSVPs are required. During the reception, there will be attendance prizes and a DESSERT ONLY silent auction!
This reception will kick off the exhibition of all photographic works in our temporary exhibit hall, where they will remain until Dec. 17th.  $1000 in prizes will be awarded.
Fees are $10 per entry, limit two entries per person.
Awards: 1st place black and white, and color $250
2nd place each category $150
3rd place each category $75
People’s Choice from all entries $50
