In The Beginning

       
                                                    In The Beginning (photos)
       
        Three years ago today, June 13, 2009, LightBox opened it's doors to the public! Since that day over 450 photographers have shown prints on the walls of the gallery, we have had countless events, artist presentations, workshops, classes, openings, gatherings and members photo group meetings.
       The journey has been quite an adventure, and as any gallery owner can tell you, a lot of very hard work! Three years later we are still looking ahead and gathering momentum to make LightBox everything we hoped for in the beginning! Over the years from the day we took on the job of building the space to prepare for the grand opening on June 13th, 2009, we have invested everything we have, both sweat and cash into our dream of bringing a Photographic center and gallery to the NorthCoast of Oregon.
      
       Today we celebrate what is and it is with great pride that we thank you all for your interest over the years and for being followers of LightBox! Enjoy these photos that show our adventure from the day we took possession of the space to the day that we opened the door, these pictures show some very fond memories of the days when LightBox was just a dream and we went forward with the belief that you can "leap and the net will appear"! best, M&C
