Although we had low attendance for this meeting, we still had a lot to talk about!

We discussed the public art project in the Macy's/IDS skyway, "Speaking of Home"
http://www.speakingofhome.org/
There are a lot of people involved in this project, not just the curator. If you haven't seen it in person yet, take a walk through the skyway on your next lunch break to see it. It's up until Oct. 31st.

We also talked about artist 'tsevis' on flickr. His work combines hundreds of photographs to create a collage of a single image. Many of his works relate to current events and have been published in magazines.

We are also excited to announce our guest speaker for this quarter! Eliesa of Photogen-Inc will be visiting us on Monday, September 15th at 5PM! Check back to see where she will be speaking. We're hoping for either the gourmet gallery, or art gallery on the first floor!
View her website and check out some of her work! http://photogen-inc.com/

We are going to have a group show at the Northrup King building's "First Thursdays". We are aiming for October. We still need a show theme, if you have any ideas or suggestions, you can email them to the club email.

Our next meeting will be Week 9, September 8th at 5pm in room 339. At this time the officers will take submissions for this quarter's elections. If you're interested in a position, write a paragraph about why you think you should be elected.
