ROCHESTER MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY EXHIBITION

Threshold Arts invites Rochester Area photographers to submit images for a pop-up Rochester Music Photography exhibition during the Rochester Thaw Music Festival. We have a small window between exhibitions in our gallery at 311 S. Broadway (nestled between Thaw venues Art Heads Emporium, Cafe Steam, and Treedome), and the goal of this exhibition is to activate our gallery in a meaningful way during the Thaw Festival on March 23 while showcasing the talent of live music photographers in our community. 

The exhibition will be on display and open to the public beginning Wednesday, March 20 through Sunday, April 7. All area photographers are welcome to submit images by March 15.

Instructions and details:

  • Photos must be from music events in Rochester, MN OR feature bands from the Rochester, MN area.

  • Please submit high-resolution images using the following form no later than 3 pm on Friday, March 15.

  • Artists are welcome to submit up to five (5) images (label 1-5 in order of preference). Space is limited to 30 photos, and each registered artist will have at least one photograph included in the exhibition, based on space.

  • All photos will be printed and framed at 11 x 14 or 8 x 10 (matted) inches.
