The New Hampshire Society of Photographic Artists in association with the New Hampshire Historical Society is initiating a project to present a photographic portrait of life in New Hampshire and display the results of that portrait in a series of regional and statewide exhibits with the objective of a book of selected photographs.  New Hampshire Artist Laureate Gary Samson will curate the project.

However, all images must have been made after August 1^st 2018.
