Awkward Family Photos & Ugly Christmas Sweaters
December 10, 2012 to January 4, 2013
OPEN CALL

We all have photos that we either hide in the back of our photo albums or use to blackmail close friends and
family because of their absurdity or an unfortunate expression or position that occurs right at the moment
a photo is captured. Well, now is your chance to share your own awkward photographs with the rest of 
Wells County. We will provide the pushpins if you supply the photographs. Come in and hang something 
anonymously on any clear area of gallery wall that you wish. Photos may be framed or unframed and unless 
you want us to toss them at the end of the exhibit, please include your name and contact information on the
back. Title cards are unnecessary, though we do encourage clever titling and would love for you to share a
story to go along with your photo. In addition to photos, we will also accept the incorporation of Ugly Christmas
Sweaters hung on the walls. This exhibit is designed to be a relaxed and fun way that we can all be involved in
the gallery and we hope that everyone participates! For more information about this exhibit, please call 
Quinn at the CAC on Mondays or Wednesdays between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. at 260-824-5222 or email 
creativeartscouncil@gmail.com.
