A friend sent this information about What’s the Hook, the BWAC exhibition in Red Hook, Brooklyn of photos taken of the Red Hook community  by the Red Hook community. This is the final weekend of the exhibit.

What’s the Hook? is a community-based photography project designed to   
document a single week in the life of Red Hook, Brooklyn, one of New York   
City’s most unique and rapidly changing neighborhoods. Last summer, What’s   
the Hook? asked people of all backgrounds to submit images captured during   
the week of August 12th – 19th, 2007. Kids at PS #27 and their neighbors at the   
Senior Center were given single-use cameras. Other people used their own.   

In seven ordinary days more than 120 people produced over 1000   
extraordinary photos of what Red Hook means to them. (A selection of What’s   
the Hook? photos can be seen and downloaded at:

Images of all kinds, from all kinds of people.   

From the pupusa vendors at the ball fields to the crew of the Crown Princess at   
the Container Port. Old-timers and newcomers, professionals and amateurs,   
dog-walkers and drivers, shopkeepers, chefs, artists, vets — even the UPS guy
What’s the Hook? was created in part to bring the community together to   
RECORD, REMEMBER and REDEFINE the changing face of Red Hook.
