As Jen mentioned in the newsletter, Smith's series, Collocations, is on view at The Center for Photography at Woodstock until October 26th.

In addition to their Annual Benefit Gala and Auction, this Saturday, October 11th, CPW programming includes a plethora of opportunities, educational and otherwise, for photographers: their annual Photography Now call for entries has been extended to Friday, October 24, 2008. This year's juror for the competition just happens to be 20x200 Queen Bee, Ms. Jen Bekman herself.

Ms. Bekman, with a host of stellar panelists, will also be reviewing the work of photographers who enter JBP's Hey, Hot Shot! competition which just opened. The deadline for the Second Edition of Hey, Hot Shot! 2008 is Tuesday, November 11th, so don't delay and apply now!

Hey, Hot Shot! candidates, contenders, and fans, keep an eye on the HHS blog, where I'll be joining Jen Snow to post about about HHS contenders, who may also become 20x200 artists, like Ms. Smith, of course, as well as yesterday's photographer, Jeff Krolick; both were Hot Shots in the winter of 2007. What's in store this winter? Only time will tell!
