Photography & Poetry this Saturday!
Bellevue, PA, January 2nd, 2008 — Lights! is a photographic exploration featuring photographic work from local photographers.

This show puts photographers in a world of never ending light sources to capture their best representation of light. So join in on the fun for an event featuring the works of John E. Bodnar, Sarah Higgins, Chris Maverick, Dawn Zacharias, Sarah Hindman, Lucinda Wiebe, Michelle Mitchell, Michael Flaherty, Dustin McGrew, John Altdorfer, Tamara Barker, Christina Labrise, Jeff Zoet, and Marta Heberle.
