Nine Sweetwater County photographers are sharing their original images in a display at the White Mountain Library in Rock Springs now through the end of January.
The Sweetwater Photo Open is an annual event in the Sweetwater County Library System and is an opportunity for photography artists to present their work.
A reception open to the public to recognize the artists will be from 5-7 p.m. on Monday, Dec. 19.
The images include local landscapes and animals to scenery the photographers captured while on trips as far away as Italy. Participants are Pat Doak, David Halter, David Metz, Amber Newell, Ellen Newell, Patrick Newell, Bernice Shuster, David Schuster and Jennifer Foxley Wiberg,
The Sweetwater County Library System Exhibits Committee organizes, schedules and develops the guidelines for the exhibits displayed in the county libraries.
The Committee meets throughout the year to review applications and schedule exhibits. Throughout the year, different group shows feature emerging artists, quilts, photography or small formatted work.
Artists interested in displaying their work in a one-person exhibit, are encouraged to submit an application for an individual exhibit. Application packets are available at any county library circulation desk and at the Community Fine Arts Center.
The Exhibits Committee is made up of community members Angie Bennett, Deon Quitberg and Donna Ragsdale, all from Green River, and library system members Michelle Maser, library manager of the White Mountain Library; Jacqueline Kramer, library manager of the Sweetwater County Library; Lindsey Travis, library manager at Rock Springs Library and Debora Soule, CFAC director.
