Announcing a new Photo Contest from the San Gabriel Mission Playhouse The Playhouse is about to embark on an exterior painting project, and we are inviting YOU to help us document the process in an original, compelling, and artful way. Over the course of the following two months, we invite all amateur photographers to visit the Playhouse and take photos of the “before,” “during” and “after” phases of the exterior painting project. Photos can be of any portion of the exterior of the Playhouse. Photographers will NOT have any access to the interior of the Playhouse, and must be respectful of painting crew onsite during the project (no climbing on ladders, lifts, or scaffolding, etc.). Note that due to the nature and scope of this painting project, we cannot pin down exact dates for the various phases, but we anticipate the following: February 7th – March 18th “before”; March 19th – March 30th “during”; March 31th - April 10th “after.” The Photo Contest is sponsored by the City of San Gabriel. This Photo Contest is in no way sponsored by, endorsed by, administered by, or associated with, Facebook.
