Kelowna Museums announces photo contest, with a historical twist.

The Kelowna Museums is launching the Foundations to Build On: Then & Now Photo Contest.  This is your opportunity to become a part of an exhibition, and have your work displayed at the Kelowna Museums. The contest is simple: Log on to our blog at www.museumsoutloud.ca and pick one or more of the archival  images we have selected from the Kelowna Museums' Public Archives and show us your interpretation of that photo or show us how it looks today! You can use any kind of camera to capture the photo: digital, polaroid, professional, and we definitely encourage the use of your smartphones! When you have your photo, come in to the Kelowna Museums and submit it! There are several ways in which you can do this:

 *   Send your photo through email to cneale at kelownamuseums.ca

 *   Log on to our Facebook page www.facebook.com/Kelowna.Museums.Society  and submit them, or

 *   Stop by the Okanagan Heritage Museum, located at 470 Queensway Ave., to drop off the photo file or physical image.

You will find full contest rules and regulations on www.museumsoutloud.ca. The contest runs until August 5th, 2013. We'll announce the grand prize winner at the Downtown Kelowna Block Party  on  August 10th, 2013.  If you have any questions about Foundations to Build On: Then & Now Photo contest, call Christina Neale at (778) 478-9767 or email cneale at kelownamuseums.ca
