Lens On Silicon Valley: A Photographic Exhibition
Is it possible to capture the essence of a place in a way that can be recognized and
understood by others?
How about a place whose exact, geographic boundaries are sometimes hotly debated, and at other times claimed not to exist — only accepted as a "state of mind"? We are referring to our own region known as "Silicon Valley."

About the Exhibition
Through the work of the Los Gatos - Saratoga Camera Club, the California History Center will host "Lens on Silicon Valley: A Photographic Exhibition" and explore this challenge: Members of the Camera Club have been asked to answer the question, "What does Silicon Valley mean to you?" and will have free rein to capture what they feel is the meaning of "Silicon Valley."
Approximately 48 photographic works will be selected and displayed. We are excited
to see what they come up with and look forward to how their work might inspire our
own students to come up with future documentation projects.
For more than 50 years, the Los Gatos - Saratoga Camera Club has provided opportunities
for local photographers to share their work, participate in workshops, and organize
exhibits for the general public. For more information about the club, visit lgscc.photoclubservices.com.
