Enter your great pics of Natick (and beyond) in Oldtown Calendar Competition

September 29, 2022 by Deborah Brown

All are invited to enter Natick’s annual Oldtown Photo Calendar Competition, a community-building tradition organized by the Eliot Church.

Now in its 17th year, the show brings in hundreds of community members to see photographers’ perspectives on the Natick area, not to mention the fun of competition and the sense of history and community from the event. Images captured in Natick, Dover, Sherborn, Wellesley and Needham are eligible. Photographers of all skill levels are welcome.

The show will take place in the historic Eliot Church sanctuary at 45 Eliot Street in South Natick. On Sunday, October 16, come vote for your favorites, and check out the just-published 2023 calendar, featuring the winners from last year’s competition.
