Call for Photos from your year's Clarion West Workshop

Clarion West – images from twenty-five years of workshops

Hi All;

I’m in the process of creating a photomontage of images from Clarion West workshops that will evoke memories of workshops past.  I’m looking for “best of” class pictures and informal, candid moments from parties or workshop experiences for a Power Point slide show that we’ll launch at Potlatch on February 29, after the reception following our annual general meeting.  

I’ll also take it on the Clarion West twenty-fifth anniversary “road show” to cons like the Denver World Con, Calgary’s World Fantasy Con, and possibly WisCon.  We’d like any former student or instructor with a great photo representing memorable moments in CW history to contribute to this project.  I’ll be organizing the photos by year and look forward to receiving photos from alumni old and new.

We hope to include images from all Clarion West workshops to date (1984 – 2007), and also from the workshops that Vonda McIntyre ran in 1971, 1972, and 1973.   I need your images to come to us as .jpgs attached to an email along with the names of the people in the photo, dates, and any other information you want to share.  If you have print photos, please scan them and send them in .jpgs of at least 300 dpi.

Send them to me at leslie@clarionwest.org or leshowle@sff.net no later than February 16, 2008.  Please start looking through your photo files and see what you've got.  It will be amazing to see all of you from the last 25 years of Clarion West (plus the three years in the early 70's) together in one slide show.  If any of you might be interested in helping me with this project, please let me know.

Thanks very much in advance, I look forward to seeing your photos, revisiting those good times, and sharing them with the whole community throughout the year!

Cheers;

Leslie
