The club meeting is open to the public and begins at 6:30 p.m. It will begin with a short business meeting. The speaker will start at 7 p.m. A monthly photo competition featuring work by local LPS photographers will close the evening.
Executive director and curator of the Center for Fine Art Photography, Hamidah Glasgow, will share her expertise on how to promote fine art photography.
Insights will be shared about the ongoing question about fine art photography. What makes an image or a body of work fine art photography? There are many kinds of photography and as many or more ways to promote them. Glasgow will talk about photographic images and their classifications as well as how photographers/artists can find venues to show work.
Glasgow has been the executive director and curator at the Center for Fine Art Photography in Fort Collins since 2009. She holds a master's degree in humanities with a specialization in visual and gender studies and a bachelor's degree in philosophy.
Her contribution to photography has included curatorial projects, national portfolio reviews (FotoFest, Photolucida, Medium, Center, Filter, etc.), contributions to publications and online magazines and the co-hosting of regional conferences.
She is also a co-founder of the Strange Fire Collective. This collective is dedicated to photo-based work that engages with current social and political forces, highlighting the work of women, people of color, and queer and trans artists, writers and curators.
Glasgow's previous professional experience include commercial advertising producer, business development director, firefighter and ski instructor. She has over 15 years of management in the arts nonprofit sector.
