Annual CIPC Photography Exhibits
There will be two themed CIPC photography exhibits each year. All members are encouraged to participate in these events.
The Spring Exhibit photos are hung in the gallery on the second floor of the Callawassie Clubhouse. One image per photography club member may be submitted.
The Fall Exhibit takes place on a weekend in November, is hung in the Callawassie Clubhouse Dogwood Room and includes a Bistro Night. Up to three images per photography club member may be submitted. At the conclusion of the Fall Exhibit, one of each photographer's images will replace the Spring Exhibit photos on display in the second floor gallery of the Callawassie Clubhouse.

PAYMENT:
Note that there is a new option to pay electronically via Zelle:
If your bank offers Zelle, payments to CIPC are available using Jim's email [email protected])which will deposit the funds directly into the CIPC account at Synovus Bank.
If you wish to pay via the trusty old analog method, checks should be made out to "CIPC" and delivered to our Treasurer Jim Keohane's mail tube at 6 Longwood Court. Please send an email to Jim at [email protected] letting him know that you are dropping it off so that he knows to look for it.
PREPARING PHOTOS FOR PRINTING:
- The " INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREPARING PHOTOS FOR PRINTING" link below helps you create and submit a jpeg file that meets our quality and printing requirements, including how to:
- crop for the desired "aspect ratio" to get the print at one of the eligible sizes (length and width)
- output at the best resolution for sharp printing
- use a simple file naming convention to easily identify images
SUBMITTING PHOTOS TO BE PRINTED:
- First make sure they are the required dimensions, as described above, and have high enough resolution as described in "INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREPARING PHOTOS FOR PRINTING" linked below. Then follow this link to Submit Files via WeTransfer ; use [email protected] as the recipient.
- Please be sure to fill out the online Entry Form by clicking the button below. The form includes the Title, Location and Description (optional) that will be used on the exhibit labels for your image, and other key information to help us track them as they are printed, mounted, and hung.
