SullivanMunce Cultural Center - Zionsville Monthly Magazine

January 2019 Writer // Janelle Morrison Photography // Lloyd Riley, Courtesy of the SullivanMunce Cultural Center As previously reported in our December issue of Zionsville Monthly and officially announced by the SullivanMunce Cultural Center, we will be featuring the work of William “Lloyd” Riley and monthly submissions from the public as part of a new contest and exhibition. “Through the Lens: Lloyd Riley, Photojournalist” will open just a little less than a year from now and will remain on exhibit until February 22, 2020. Visitors to the exhibit will see life in Zionsville throughout the 1950s, ‘60s and early ‘70s. In addition to this remarkable exhibition, the SullivanMunce, in partnership with Zionsville Monthly, is announcing a community photography contest that is open to all ages. The photograph contest begins now through October 12, 2019. At the end of the contest, a photo in each of three categories – Best Adult, Teen and Youth – will be judged by a selected panel and showcased next to Riley’s work at the opening of the exhibition. The purpose of the contest is to add photographs from residents to the SullivanMunce’s Historical Collection, which documents life in Zionsville, past and present. Submission ideas include parades, sporting events, ribbon cuttings, businesses, contests, holiday activities, school activities, political races, landscapes/streetscapes, police, fire, scouts, residences, special events, church events, etc. The intention is to increase community involvement in preserving the history of Zionsville, increase the Historical Collection to include decades not currently represented and promote the mission of the SullivanMunce Cultural Center while honoring Riley in the process. Look for our special section featuring a sample of the upcoming exhibition along with photo submissions from the community each month leading up to the opening of the exhibition.
