We had a wonderful experience as a first-time exhibitor at the photography show AIPAD for the past five days! Saw many APAG members, photographers, friends, and the gallerists! The new location was great, more spacious and included more exhibitors. Our recently published book, THE PHOTO ARCHIVE HANDBOOK was a big success! It is available under resources on our website Thanks as always to our board members Julie Grahame and Grayson Dantzic and Ernie Londa who stopped by. Also, appreciated our members who pitched in Peter Angelo Simon, Sherry Suris, Judith Thompson, Patricia Fried, Loni Efron and Cynthia Matthews. Our 3pm meetup on Saturday was a big success, as George Tice and his daughters Lisa and Jennifer joined us, and he shed light about an important issue for us, digital storage. Thanks to John Goodman for the meeting idea!
