Picture Your Place Photo Show at the Grand Traverse Heritage Center October, 2007 |
This past fall LIAA hosted the first annual Picture Your Place Photo Contest. We invited area photographers to showcase aspects of the Grand Traverse region's unique natural and cultural surroundings and to provoke thought about what we value in the Grand Traverse Area and how it can be preserved through submission of photography and accompanying essays in four catagories: Places to Work, Places of Cultural Value, Places to Recreate and Places of Natural Beauty.
Over the next few months, YourPlace will be featuring the winning entries in each catagory as well as our judges favorites.
This month we are featuring the winners in the "Places to Work" category. Please use the links below to visit and comment on these artist's images and words:

We had a wonderful response and appreciate the participating photographers support of this project.
We hope you will join in the celebration of the Grand Traverse Region next fall by entering your photos for the 2008 Picture YourPlace Contest.
