Press Release 2011

 

 

 

4th EDITION OF BOARDS PHOTO BOOK GOES LIVE THIS NOVEMBER!

Another year, another Boards Photobook!

Every year, the users from the photography forum on Boards.ie stick their heads and hands together to organize the annual Boards Photobook. The entire project is conducted online and is organized by volunteers from the forum.

The book showcases some of the finest photography work from both amateurs and professionals and will make a great Christmas present; as for each book sold, a charitable donation will be made to Santa Strike Force. The feelgood factor comes free!

Boards Photo Book launches at the Dublin Camera Gallery on Camden Street at 8pm on November 26th 2011.

Santa Strike Force: This charity was launched by Tom Murphy, founder of Boards, and secretly buys presents for care centres and hospitals, so that children can enjoy the presents year-round.

The book will be launched by Tom in the Dublin Camera Club gallery, 10 Lower Camden Street at 8 pm on November 26th. Dublin Camera Club have once again been so very kind to offer their gallery space for free in order to support the project.  Many of the contributors and users of the photography forum will meet each other there. Remarkably, it will probably be the first time many of them will have met face to face – as all work behind the book happens entirely on the forum, which is an amazing feat!

The publication will be made available for purchase to the general public by Shakespeare Photobooks, a Waterford based company who have been selected for a second time for the printing process. After the book launch, copies of the book will be available for purchase directly from Shakespeare Photobooks. A limited amount of additional copies will be available for purchase on the launch night.

We herewith extend an invitation and warm welcome to all interested in attending the book launch. We hope to make the book a successful venture to ensure that Santa Strike Force can keep providing their fantastic service to institutions that, in these budgetary times, so much rely on donations from the public.

For any further inquiries, you can contact the team behind the book on boardsbook {at} gmail.com – or contact Sarah Vanden Broeck on 087 644 46 09 to arrange media coverage.
