The Civic Center there, a converted Atlantic Coast Line freight station, was planning a celebration. It is the 100th anniversary of its construction. The attached passenger station is now the home of the Beaufort County Arts Council and the Pamlico-Tar River Foundation. Folks at the Arts Council remembered a show of train photos I did there about 15 years ago. They called and asked if I could put something together for the birthday party. I was able to dig up most of the photos (~40 board mounted B&W 11X14s) from the original show. I added 25 color photos (12X16) from the last 2-3 years, recycling the framing from last year's Goose Creek State Park show in the same location. The show is hung. May 19, the building gets it National Historic Building listing. May 20, 10AM-2PM, there will be model trains, and music, and train memorabilia, and the show. The photos will be on display until mid-June. If you find yourself in that part of the world, have a peek. To make sure they are open, call 252.975.9316 or 252.946.2504. I'l try to build an Internet gallery. Ric Carter http://gallery.leica-users.org/Passing-Fancies
