The ArtSpace/Lima Photography Club will present its Annual Juried Exhibition from Jan. 6 through Feb. 18 in The Ellen Nelson Gallery at ArtSpace.
The exhibit will feature 101 photographs by 45 area adult photographers, chosen from an entry list of 198 photographs by 64 photographers. Entry categories include: Animals, Architecture, Black and White, Landscape, Plants, Portraiture, Special Effects, Still Life, Miscellaneous, and Youth. Nine photographs by four youth photographers were also accepted into the show.
Here's an interesting photo set taken in either 1955 or 1956. The location: town hall second floor (Legion Hall). The event: Bluffton Business Men's Association welcome dinner meeting for the Ex-Cell-O Corporation. That building today is owned by Colonial Surface Solutions.
Who do you recognize in the photo?
Is that Clarence or Hiram Diller looking at the camera? Two seats down is Paul Steiner, then Harold Klinger, and Charles Hankish, Sr.

A friend recently challenged everyone to admit what percentage of their 2011 resolutions they'd managed to meet. Problem was, I couldn't even remember what I might have resolved, so I had to backtrack through my blogs until I found my answer. I didn't make any. Well, technically, I didn't make any although there was a short list of resolutions I'd have made if I were a resolution maker. Oddly, I actually fulfilled a few of those non-resolutions.
