THANK YOU ALL for a great photography exhibit on Saturday. It was truly an awesome event! The work was great, the participants were top notch, the whole thing came together better than I had even hoped for. I can not even begin to estimate how many people attended, it was packed all night from the time the doors opened at 6pm until 10pm when we closed down – at least 600 and probably 1000, since the faces kept changing all evening. I heard fabulous compliments all evening. All I can say is WOW and job well done.Check out the Video of SCAD-Atlanta Photo Exhibition - Oct 17, 2009 (thanks Steve Aishman & David Jones)
