New Drone Exhibit Coming Soon
The Pacific Maritime Heritage Center has a new exhibit coming on Friday, March 10 called 'Lincoln County 400'. The reception will be at the Maritime Center from 4-7 pm and is free to the public.
"March 10, 2023 we celebrate the opening of our newest exhibit, Lincoln County 400′ which is an exhibition focused on contemporary drone photography AND historical aerial images from the LCHS collection. This invitational exhibition features the work of drone photographers who fly under 400 feet while documenting the landscape of Lincoln County, Oregon. Technology has created a new avenue for photographers to work, creating still or panoramic images and video footage taken from the sky via drone. In comparison, historic aerial images from our archives will be juxtaposed amongst the drone work. Some of the drone work will be available for purchase; pick up of sold work after the exhibition run completes." as stated by the Pacific Maritime Heritage Center website.
