CANTON -- For the months of August and September, customers in TAUNY’s North Country Folkstore will receive an 8-by-10-inch color photograph by Massena photographer Dorothy Badger for every $25 spent.
Individual photos will be on sale for $5 each.
The photos, taken between 1979-2006, capture views and scenes of the Northern Adirondacks and the St. Lawrence River Valley in all seasons.
Many of the scenes captured in the photographs are no longer visible due to changes in the landscape over the years, including the growth of trees that now block some of the views.
Badger, a well-known photographer from the North Country, has donated a collection of her images to TAUNY to raise funds to support the organization’s mission.
In 2019, special sales of the images generated thousands of dollars.
The current promotion in the Folkstore is an incentive from the artist to encourage sales to help TAUNY make up pandemic-related loss of income.
There are dozens of choices of images and customers will be able to select what they like, said a press release from TAUNY.
“We are very grateful to Dorothy for her support of TAUNY’s work, especially in these difficult times. Her photographs capture the essence of our region and this is a special opportunity to bring her work home or share it as a gift with someone else,” says Executive Director Jill Breit.
The TAUNY Center is located at 53 Main St.
