We are looking to add to the photographic history of our beautiful town. We are asking everyone, regardless of their photography skills or age, to take photos of their lives, at community events that happen in Rush, and at different locations around town. All photos submitted will be added to the Historical Society’s Photo collection with identifying information including the photographer’s name. We will post and display all images each season and ask residents to vote on their favorites. Voting will take place in-person at the Rush Library and online at the Rush Historical Society's Facebook Page. The winners will be notified by email or phone, and their photographs will be made into a 2025 Seasons of Rush Calendar available for sale beginning in the fall of 2024. Winning photographers will all receive a copy of the calendar. Community Events to Consider Photographing: Rush Fireman's Parade (August 11), Rush Carnival (August 10-12, 2023), Local barns & farming scenes, Memorial Day & July, 4th celebrations, Holiday Tree Lighting Ceremony, GazeboFest Concerts Honeoye Creek & Falls Town Parks, Lehigh Valley Trail, and Your backyard!
Contest rules, photo release form and submission form are also available at the Rush Library.
