Morristown Gallery Wants To Put Your Photos of American History on Display

When 70 South Gallery opened in Morristown, replacing the generations-old Sandrian Camera, the ownership said the business was going to be for the people, by the people.

It’s living up to its promise as the gallery seeks submissions in a call to artists for a unique July 4-focused exhibit.

“We envision this show bringing together the work of photographers with a passion for patriotic and history-capturing art,” said Ira Black, the gallery’s Artist Relations Manager. “Ideally, we will be able to feature these iconic moments in America’s history and display them for all to enjoy around a holiday that gives people license to stop and appreciate our history and accomplishments.”

The gallery is looking for a wide range of images, but are all grounded in their strength as storytellers.

The deadline for entries is Friday, April 24 at 5 p.m. Anyone with questions is urged to contact Black at iral.black@ 705southgallery.com or by visiting 70southgallery.com.
