In order to see the way the world is viewed by local photographers, the Fremont Cultural Arts Council (FCAC) and the City of Fremont are sponsoring the 24th annual “Juried Photography Exhibit.” The opening night reception will be held Saturday, March 24; photographs selected by judges will be on display on the second floor of the Fremont Main Library.
