One of Andrew's photographs has been accepted for display in the 84th Spring Salon at the Springville Art Museum! We've been talking about entering for a couple years now, but he hasn't had a photo printed, framed, and ready to go before this year. We are SO excited! Andrew has talked about becoming a "real boy" more and more as he has gotten more photography equipment that he needs and more experience taking and editing pictures. It's just our running joke about his quest to become a good photographer. This is a step in the right direction to becoming the "real boy" that he has been dreaming of. Just to have one of his pictures on display in a nice museum with appropriate lighting (and a price tag)--it's so great!Last year the museum got about 1,000 entries, and about 270 were accepted. I know each year it gets more competitive. There isn't a lot of photography in the show; it seems to be more focused on canvas and sculpture. Anyway, his picture will be on display there from April 27th - July 6th. If you've never been to the museum--go! Not just to see his photo, of course. It is really a neat museum and it's free! Great for a date. :)

Great job! Congrats!
awesome...we'll definitely go have a look! we love art museums...and neal's never been to the springville art museum.
That is so awesome!! It is a HUGE deal to get in that show!! I was an intern at the Springville Museum for 2 years and that is a tough show to get into. Way to go Andrew!! Wow, I'm really impressed. And for those who haven't been there, it's a total hidden jem of Utah Valley, so you should go. They only display Utah artists (and some Russian Impressionist art), and it's FREE!
Congrats! I'm going to tell my family in Utah about this (a classy date idea, right?). So, will he make other prints of this to sell?
Shannon, I had no idea you were an intern there for 2 years. Awesome!
Jenny, yes, he will make more prints (as the orders come). He is going to take a class next year that is all about creating websites and online payment processing. He is waiting til then to make a website. He could make one now, but he wants it to be really good.
Way ta go Andrew!! Awesome Andrew!!
