On September 13, 2000 an exhibition opened in the Loyola College Art Gallery in Baltimore, Maryland. This exhibition was a history and appreciation of the camera obscura. It included historic prints, books, and objects from our collection as well as enlarged images to show more detail, Photographs and publications from about 14 camera obscuras we have visited in Great Britain and the U.S. were displayed. Photographs and drawings by five contemporary artists who use the camera obscura were included. The exhibition opening had good attendance and the comments were very positive. During the exhibition we gave several gallery tours for organizations and school groups. As always a project that took a great deal of time to prepare seemed to be over very soon. The exhibition closed on October 6.
