The Stone Quarry Hill Art Park wants to see the way you see the Art Park every season of the year. You are cordially invited to take part in the 2011 Art Calendar and Exhibition Project by registering and presenting your personal photographic vision of the Art Park to the Stone Quarry Hill Art and Exhibition Committee.

Beginning now and continuing through October 2010, you may come to the Art Park once or numerous times and photograph the environs and the art. The Art and Exhibition Committee will select the monthly seasonal photos for inclusion in our 2011 Art Park Calendar. In addition, every photographer that is registered will have at least one photograph in an Art Park Gallery exhibition scheduled to open on Sunday July 24, 2011 and continuing through August 14, 2011 in the Winner Art Gallery located on the Art Park grounds.

You can register by printing this document, filling out the form below, cutting it as indicated and mailing it, with a check for $35, $25 for Art Park members, to:

As soon as your registration has been received you may begin photographing the Art Park.  Please send a maximum of three digital images in the third week of the month you are photographing via email to: office@stonequarryhillartpark.org

The Art and Exhibition Committee will make their decision on the winners for that particular season and the winning images will be posted on our web site the following month. You will be notified of the committee's selection of your photo for the exhibition by April 2011. Calendar photos for November and December will be selected from our archives.


Thank you and we look forward to seeing you at the Art Park.
 
 

Madison County is blessed to have a large number of great parks.  Everyone knows about Chittenango Falls State Park, but I recently had the chance to explore Oxbow Falls County Park.  Now  had been there for a ball game and a couple of picnics over the years, but I had never really explored the park.  I took my camera with me and decided to see what the trails were like.  I was very impressed.  The park offers a wonderful panoramic view of the northern part of the county, including Oneida Lake.  The trails are very well maintained and the take you past three waterfalls, which unfortunately were dry in mid-July.  I intend to make my way back there this fall as I'm sure when the leaves start changing color it will give an outstanding opportunity to take stunning pictures.  Enjoy some of the photos I took below and find some time to explore this park for yourself.
