Originating in 1975 as the Paducah Summer Festival Photo Competition, Art Through The Lens has grown from a fledgling contest into an international juried exhibition. Over the past 45 years this exhibition has become one of the Mid-South’s most prestigious annual photographic events.
This year, juror Shannon Randol chose 44 works from 758 submissions and Yeiser Art Center staff juried 52 pieces into the Regional Salon.
