UnScene San Francisco features city's merging photographers

A collaboration between W San Francisco Hotel, 944 Magazine, and the UnScene Photography Tour presents UnScene San Francisco, a celebration of San Francisco's emerging photographers and gallery exhibition. This is only one stop in a multi-city event, comprising exhibitions in Dallas, New Orleans, San Diego, and New York, to name a few. Each juried event will feature five local artists, the top rated of which will receive a solo exhibition at a local gallery: in this case Jack Fischer Gallery. All events are held at participating W Hotels. The event will take place March 19, 2008, at W San Francisco.

The deadline for submissions is February 29, 2008. Click here to sign up, or for more information on future stops on the UnScene Photography Tour in 2008.

From the UnScene Photography Tour:

"Specializing in contemporary art and photography, the Jack Fischer Gallery will be judging the UnScene artists along with Emmy Kasten, editor-in-chief of 944 Magazine and the W San Francisco management team. All works will be on sale the night of the 19th with proceeds benefiting Creativity Explored, a nonprofit visual arts center where artists with developmental disabilities create, exhibit, and sell art."
