Photobook is a project where 50 Spartanburg County teens are given a camera each and asked to photograph Spartanburg as they see it. This is the third year of the project and we are changing things up a bit with an optional photo scavenger hunt! To participate and learn more, attend the Photobook kick off event on June 8th @ 3pm in the Hoechst Celanese Room at the Headquarters Library. If any cameras are left after the kick off event, they will be at the Teen Services Desk in the teen room or you can request them by clicking on the Photobook logo on www.infodepot.org. First come, first served!
Photobook is open to teens ages 12-18 or entering grades 7-12 and runs June 8th-June 30th. Cameras can be turned in to any Spartanburg County Public Library location. All returned cameras will be entered into a drawing for a $25 Visa giftcard!
Film from the cameras will be developed and at least one photo from each camera will be selected to display at the Headquarters Library in the AT&T Exhibition Gallery in September. The photographers will be given a set of prints from the film in their camera. All photos taken become the property of the Spartanburg County Public Libraries
Three photos will be selected as the best based on originality, creativity and composition. The winning photographers will receive $25 Visa giftcards!
Call 864-285-9031 or email teens@infodepot.org with questions!
The grand prize winner must be a full-privilege Spartanburg County Library card holder or live at the same permanent address as a full privilege Spartanburg County Library cardholder.
