Exposed DC Welcomes Our New Executive Director

August 17, 2017 By Heather Goss Leave a Comment

We have some exciting news today—at least, if you’re into big staff changes at your favorite local arts organization. Exposed DC is thrilled to announce that Noe Todorovich is taking over as Executive Director. We hope you’ll celebrate with us at our regular monthly happy hour on August 29 at Right Proper Brewery.

Noe is a full-time photographer who previously worked in communications for non-profit organizations. She was raised in Hawaii and moved to D.C. in 2004. Her work now focuses primarily on lifestyle photography and has been featured in Washington Life, the Washington Post, Northern Virginia Magazine, the Huffington Post, Capitol Romance, and Flickr Explore.

Noe first discovered Exposed by attending one of our annual shows, and was inspired to enter the next year. Her work has been featured in several of our exhibits, including our 10 year anniversary show, when she asked about volunteering with us. Now she’ll be heading up that annual show, as well as our regular Exposed DC events and exhibits through the year, and giving it all her own new style. Our team is very excited to barrel into our second decade with Noe at the helm.

We’d also like to thank Julian Thomas for coming aboard recently to take over our In Frame and Featured Instagrammers posts. (Don’t forget, to have your images picked, tag them #exposeddc on IG or put them in our Flickr group.) And we hope to introduce you to a couple more new folks around here in the near future. A hearty, ongoing thanks to our hard-working teammates who’ve been with us for years: Jennifer Wade, Caroline Space, Leigh Bailey, and Meaghan Gay.

James Calder, who has been my partner running Exposed for the last six years, is still amazing and will remain on our Board, as will I. Few things have given us greater joy than being in a position to show off the incredible work of D.C. area photographers, and we look forward to many more years of seeing it featured by Exposed.

Winning Photos of our 11th Annual Exposed DC Contest

January 31, 2017 By Heather Goss 8 Comments

We received a record number of photographs this year, thanks in part to extraordinary circumstances that extended our contest, which made it all the more difficult to suss out several dozen that would celebrate life in the nation’s capital. We’re proud to highlight images from institutions we welcomed as a city, such as the new era of organizing that the Women’s March has ushered in and the opening of the National African American Museum of History and Culture; smaller moments we reveled in like memorable art exhibits, snow days, and festivals; and then of course the subtle scenes that make every day life in D.C. such a rich experience. You’ll find the complete list of winners below. Save the date now for the opening of the Exposed DC Photography Show on March 9. We’ll have more information about our great new venue and the event details soon. New this year, we’ve partnered with FRAMEBRIDGE, a local company which will be printing and framing all the images for the show!

Some of you recently discovered Exposed DC, and we hope whether you won or not, you’ll stick around and become part of our community. Here’s how to get involved, including contributing images to our daily features, coming out to happy hours, and being part of our other programming through the year.

Join us tonight to toast to the winners at Meridian Pint in Columbia Heights at 6 p.m. Open to all photographers and photography fans. Our team will be there, so please come and say hello and help us celebrate photography in Washington, D.C.

Exposed DC is excited to announce its 10th annual Exposed DC Photography Show hosted by the Historical Society of Washington, D.C. from March 10 to April 1, 2016, on the second floor of the Carnegie Library.

These 47 winning photographs were chosen from a contest for their unique view of the Washington area – not as a political venue or tourist destination, but as a place where we live and work and love every day. Five of those photographs will be awarded our Best in Show prizes, each one chosen by a panel of distinguished metro-area photographers: Lucian Perkins, Susana Raab, Lauren Stockbower, Yodith Dammlash, and Carolyn Russo.

To celebrate a decade of amazing local photography, the Exposed DC opening reception will be held throughout the Carnegie Library; cocktail attire suggested. We’re showing our commitment to fostering photography for all skill levels and pursuits by partnering with local photography groups to provide entertainment and engaging activities throughout the Library. We’re delighted to be joined by Critical Exposure, Capital Photography Center, Leica Store DC, The Exposure Group African American Photographers Association, IGDC, HOIST Studio and the American Photographic Artists DC Chapter (APA|DC) to help us celebrate the big occasion.

D.C.’s own Bluejacket Brewery will provide their original brews at an open bar; complimentary wine and snacks will also be available. DJ Neville C. will provide dance tunes in the Carnegie Library’s fantastic D.C. Map Room.

A full color 10th Anniversary Exhibition Magazine with the last 5 years of winning photos be available at the opening, and online soon. The companion 5th Anniversary Magazine from 2006-2011 will also be available. Designed by Johanna Ostrich.
