We offer full accommodation (room and board) in Dwór Mieszczański (Burghers’ House). We plan to hold an exhibition of 10 photographs brought to Toruń by each artist to be presented in the Burghers’ House while the project is being held (we supply frames: 70x100cm and 50x70cm). The project includes two days of open-air photographic sessions by the end of which a selection of overall number of 100 photographs will have been selected. Those photographs will make up an exhibition to be later seen in all the partner cities represented in the project. The Association will cover the cost of the film exposure and photo display sheets from which the selection of the 100 pictures will be made. The selected pictures will then be appropriately blown up and framed. For further information please contact Joanna Ciechanowska joanna.ciechanowska@inetia.pl Partner Cities Association in Torun.
