The Bakery Photo Collective is a truly amazing not-for-profit self-service darkroom facility located in Westbrook , Maine. I’m a big fan and supporter of the BPC, Scott, and his crew. Right now their annual Photo-A-Go-Go event is taking a place and they need your support.

I know you have an beautiful photograph on your harddrive or a lovely print somewhere in a box that’s waiting to be donated. By donating a print you receive 20 free hours to use their facilities. Yes, I said 20 free hours. I’m mailing a framed print of this image tomorrow:

What are you sending? Support BPC!

More info about Photo-A-Go-Go:

Each December, the Bakery Photographic Collective hosts its annual fundraiser, Photo-A-Go-Go.  One of Southern Maine’s most anticipated events, Photo-A-Go-Go is a silent auction featuring works from established and emerging photographers at incredible prices. Members, interns and photographers from all over the country donate framed photographic prints that are displayed for viewing and sold via the silent auction.  Arguably the largest photo exhibition in the state of Maine, the fundraiser has continued to be a huge success and has allowed the collective to thrive and provide a reliable photographic resource to its members, interns and the Southern Maine photographic community.

Thank you all (especially bloggers Richard, Shawn, Emily, and JP)!

In January 2009 I leave Maine for Alebtong, Uganda, where I will spend two months volunteering and photographing for A River Blue, a non-profit arts empowerment project for the children of formerly internally displaced persons in Northern Uganda. I will be using my large format camera to photograph the people and landscape for a traveling exhibition and book that will be used to raise funds for A River Blue. Details will be announced in the spring/summer of 2009.

I initially thought of asking for donations to fund the trip but have decided that I would like to give back to those helping my efforts.

I am offering a selection of my photographs at a substantially reduced price to finance the two month trip, as well as the cost of moving from Maine to New York when I return in mid-March 2009.

Each print is $100 (unframed) and $150 (framed). Prices include shipping and handling. The framed images are matted to 11×14″ with white archival mat board and the wooden frame is white, elegant, and made by Nielsen Bainbridge. The print is protected with plexi glass and the finished piece is stunning. Thank you to Jared Cowan at Asymmetrick Arts for making the framing affordable.

In a sense, if you donate $100 you receive an unframed print and if you donate $150 you receive a framed print of your choice.

NOTE: Please order all prints by 8PM EST Sunday, December 14th. That will allow me to get them completed before I leave for Africa. Unfortunately, after December 14th I will not be able to accept print orders.

A print (or two or three) is the perfect present for the approaching
holiday season!
