Northborough Historical Society Photo Contest

Snapshot in Time: Northborough at 250 Years Document life in Northborough during 2015-2016 for future generations

The Northborough Historical Society is sponsoring a photograph contest as part of the town’s 250th anniversary celebration. The purpose of the contest is to document life in Northborough during 2015-2016 for future generations. Photographs submitted for the contest will be judged in early October 2016 and displayed at the Historical Society building. A prize will be offered for the best photograph for each of the following categories, and a people’s choice also will be awarded based on popular votes.

  1. Buildings (inside and out)
  2. Sights and Scenes (streets, landscapes, traffic, etc.)
  3. Northborough at Play (leisure-time activities, sports, recreation, parades, concerts, etc.)
  4. Northborough at Work (construction, farming, town government, DPW, fire, police, building maintenance, etc.)
  5. Northborough People (family gatherings, etc.)

Photographs must be of a Northborough scene that was taken in 2015-2016. Photographs must be printed on 8” by 10” photographic paper and a digital copy mailed to flyford@msn.com. The Society will mount photographs in a standard portrait frame for display during the contest. Photographs will be judged on the basis of content, clarity, and composition. Each photograph (limit of 3 per person) must be submitted with the form shown below attached by tape to the back. Photographs that are judged to be in poor taste will not be accepted.

Please mail or hand-deliver photographs with completed forms to Northborough Historical Society, c/o Forest Lyford, 57 Pleasant St., Northborough, MA 01532 (508-393-6680) before October 3, 2016.
