Philly Photo Day is a celebration of Philadelphia and photography, as well as of PPAC's one-year anniversary. We are asking anyone and everyone to take a picture in Philadelphia on this day and upload it to the PPAC website. Then on November 11, 2010, Philadelphia Photo Arts Center will hold an opening reception for the Philly Photo Day exhibition in the Grey Area of the Crane Arts building.
