The “Mountain” tentatively finds its new home for 2009 workshop

Faculty members and staff have made a couple of trips this spring to Murray, Ky., sight of the 2009 Mountain Workshops. Just last week we toured Murray State  University’s basketball stadium, a possible location for the headquarters. While looking thru one of the storage closets we ran across this sign. Seems to me that the photo gods are speaking to us and telling us where we need to be.

In the meantime, put Oct. 27 – Oct. 31 (Nov. 1 if you are in the picture editing workshop) on your calendar to attend this year’s workshops. We will begin taking applications soon. Check in often at <a title=”Mountain Workshops application” href=”http://mountainworkshops.org/apply” target=”_blank”>mountainworkshops.org/apply</a> for application updates, prices and for a list of this year’s faculty.
