Have you sent in your registration for the photo preservation workshop yet? You have till November 13th to register for both the free workshop and a $5.00 lunch. The free photo preservation workshop will be held on Monday, November 20th in Craigmont at the community hall in the city park. Check-in will begin at 9:00 a.m. This will be hosted by the Ilo-Vollmer Historical Society in conjunction with the quarterly Lewis County Historical Society meeting. Beginning at 9:30 a.m., Beth Erdey, Collections Manager and Research Center Director at Nez Perce National Historical Park in Spalding will present the workshop entitled Identifying and Caring for Your Old Photographs. She will explain the history of photography and photographic formats and processes and how to organize, store, and handle old photos. This will last for approximately two hours. Following the workshop, Photoshop Image Artist Judy Summers will have a display of her work as a photo restorationist and will be available to discuss her services. Summers formerly worked for Fran Rader Studio of Lewiston as a portrait photo-oil colorist, using the old techniques of that time. She now operates Digital Image Artistry, a small, professional photo retouching, restoration, colorization and manipulation service near Orofino. A lunch consisting of assorted sandwiches, fruit, chips and cookies will be served between 11:45 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. The cost for lunch is $5.00 and must be paid in advance so that organizers know how many to plan for. Everyone is invited and encouraged to stay for lunch, “network” with others, and visit with Beth and Judy. Sign-in begins at 9:00 a.m. on November 20th, and the workshop begins at 9:30. It will run for approximately two hours, followed by lunch. The Lewis County Historical Society business meeting will start at 1:00.
