If you are a photographer in the Valley who enjoys nature and community, we invite you to join the Robert Floyd Gallery’s photo contest to benefit Kestrel. Simply visit any of the conservation areas that Kestrel owns or has assisted in conserving, and photograph the landscapes, critters, and people enjoying the land. Find maps and information on many of these places on our website right here. You may also submit photos you’ve already taken in prior years in any season.

Select images will earn publication in the weekly Floyd Gallery newsletter, Gallery Facebook page, and website, and will be entered into the Floyd Gallery exhibit sponsored by the Monson Arts Council at the Monson House of Art from September 30 to October 9, 2022. Images will also be shared with Kestrel for our use in future publications.

The deadline for photo submissions is September 9.
