JOSEPH — The Wallowa Valley
Photo Club’s new exhibit, “View
Finder,” is on display through Dec.
22 at the Josephy Center for Arts
and Culture.
Jane Glesne, a photographer
featured in the show, said it’s worth
it to see the entries in real life.
“It’s great to see them in person.
The frames are really neat, too,”
she said.
It’s also easier to see the different
styles — acrylic, metal, canvas and
traditional — when viewing the
actual works, she said.
The center, 403 N. Main St., is
open Monday through Friday from
noon to 5 p.m. and Saturday from
noon to 4 p.m. Social distancing
and masks are required.
Those who prefer to see the show
from home can view the photos at
www.josephy.org/view-fi nder/.
From there, explore the show by
clicking on the name of each artist,
which brings up his or her entries.
Viewers, in-person and virtual,
are encouraged to vote for the
People’s Choice Award. Online, the
form is at the bottom of the page.
There are 52 photographs fea-
tured in the show.
The Wallowa Valley Photo Club
was established 31 years ago.
“A lot of the original people are
still in the club,” Glesne said. “Edu-
cation is the push for our club, and
just getting out and shooting.”
Prior to the pandemic, she said,
club members often gathered to
watch videos on photographic
techniques. Over the club’s lifetime,
photography has moved from fi lm
to digital.
“It’s a challenge for some of us,”
Glesne said with a laugh.
Their meetings on the fi rst
Thursday of each month are on

Zoom for now, but Glesne said that
has allowed members to attend
who don’t like venturing out at
night for a meeting.
The photographs in “View Find-
er” are for sale through Josephy’s
website, and the photo club also is
selling a limited number of 2021
calendars at local stores.

Glesne said it’s been several
years since the club had an art
show, and they hope to have more
year-end shows in the future.
Be safe, wear masks,
stay distanced: we will
get through this.
