Two photography groups will be celebrating photography with a show honoring the late photographer, Denise Gray. In conjunction with Atlanta’s annual event, “Atlanta Celebrates Photography, “Sistagraphy,” the international recognized group of African American women photographers, and Zone III Photographic Workshop, will hold an exhibit entitled, “Convergence.” This collection of works will be on display from September 24 through October 27 at the
Atlanta- Fulton Public Library System's Central Library, located at
One Margaret Mitchell Square in downtown Atlanta. An opening reception will be held on Oct. 7, from 2:30 p.m. until 5:30 p.m. in the lower level alcove. This event will be catered and is free and open to the public.
“Convergence” is a coming together of two photographic groups in honor of their late friend and member, professional photographer, Denise Gray, who died recently of complications from a blood clot. The exhibit is dedicated to Ms. Gray, who was well-known in the city of Atlanta. “Convergence” will be a showing of the groups’ very best work, as they salute Ms. Gray.
For more information, please call the Central Library at (404)730-1700 or Barbara Bishop at
