A collective body of work by novice and professional photographers, that aims to tell a visual story of the modern day whaling city from different points of view, in positive, engaging and thought-provoking ways. Postcards From New Bedford: a Photostory Project is collective body of work by novice and professional photographers, that aims to tell a visual story of the modern day whaling city from
different points of view, in positive, engaging and thought-provoking ways. The Postcards From New Bedford project brings together individuals with different levels of expertise that have an interest in photography. “The idea is to showcase varied perspectives, regardless of skill level. Ultimately, the hope is that both the observer and the photographer will take away a renewed sense of pride in their subject – the beautiful city of New Bedford…and want to share that with the world.”, said project Founder/Creative Director Beatriz Oliveira. Beyond the first exhibition – scheduled for October of 2012 – the Postcards From New Bedford project will evolve into community building, and education projects with ArtWorks! serving as home base. Opportunities will be made available for various community groups to organize throughout the year and send Postcards From New Bedford all over the world. “New Bedford is too special a place to be kept such a well kept secret”, explains John Hodgson, partner in the project. “We feel this is a way to share the beauty and unique nature of our City all around the world, and allow many constituencies throughout the City to be a part of spreading the good word. It’s exciting!”
