[Assk] "For the Beauty of the Earth" Photo exhibit

[Rebecca Lawrence]

Hello all,

I'm posting this for the museum I work for---something simple, fun, free, and easy to do---maybe someone out there would be interested--- 

We're having an open photo exhibit this fall at the Schwenkfelder Library & Heritage Center, in partnership with the Lorax Foundation (a preservation and conservation foundation in Hereford Township,  Berks County). Exhibit duration: September-November 2008.

We've partnered with the Lorax Foundation   to raise awareness of the need to preserve open spaces in our communities and highlight our many significant historic resources.
