Therefore, a new list of Themes for 2020 has been posted, on our web page and on our FB page. Look for assignments on the web page if you wish to give them a try. www.sjccny.org

Photos will be juried by Diane Bollen as last year. Two to Three images pp Prints Only - smallest should be 8 x 10 – 11 x 14. No Frames Please We are following the format of black frame white mat. In the past we accepted canvas and metal, but in retrospect, the Format of black frame white mat works best and is more uniform. Any questions contact Renée.

Since it’s an April Show, we thought the Theme should be “Spring”, Flowers, black and white, all Landscapes, etc. Title of the show to be determined - Work submitted in this show can be used in the Wallkill Show.
