This is your chance to show what H Street is to you in an upcoming exhibition, H Street: Now and Then, at Gallery OonH May 7-13. Your submission is due April 8!
H Street NE has been a destination and commercial corridor in D.C. for decades. However, it is just now experiencing an economic revitalization and cultural shift away from its historical roots. To celebrate everything that makes up this vibrant corridor, Gallery OonH is calling on photographers who want to share photographs old and new.
H Street’s rich history and culture make it a unique and energetic street that continues to attract development, sometimes at the expense of preservation. We are currently experiencing a collision of art and culture in this fast-changing neighborhood and want to document this fleeting moment in time through a collection of photographs.
This is a call for professional photographers, amateur photographers and iphoneographers who want to share photographs old and new. They particularly welcome submissions highlighting the history of H Street and encourage anyone with older and historical photographs to partake in this exhibit. They also welcome creativity in your submissions! This is your chance to show what H Street looks like from your perspective and how this mile-long stretch of road connects so many diverse communities.
