Photo contest features historic preservation

Photo provided An example of a photo entry by Marla Goodnight of Trafalgar.

The annual Historic Preservation Month photo contest, sponsored by the DNR Division of Historic Preservation & Archaeology (DHPA), has begun.

The subject of entry photos must be in Indiana, be at least 50 years old, and be something that was designed/built by people. It can be a building that’s been restored to perfection or one that needs some love. The idea is to show the value of historic preservation. Photos of exclusively natural elements are not eligible.

The complete rules and guidelines and the required entry form are at: on.IN.gov/preservation-month.

The photos should be JPEG files (less than 10MB). Each photo and the required entry form should be emailed to [email protected] as attachments. Photographers can submit up to three photos, but can submit only one photo and entry form per respective email.

The contest deadline is Friday, April 1.
