SUMMARY:New Exhibition: Out and About
DESCRIPTION:Visit the museum to see Bridgewater Photographic Society’s latest show! Out and About captures locations somewhere here on the South Shore of Nova Scotia. Some images offer recognizable features; others could be anywhere. Some are true to one’s gaze; some are double-exposures. A couple are black and white; most use enhanced colour. And one is literally garbage! Runs from June 4th until August 30th.
