The 46th annual Society of Photographic Education National Conference will be held March 26-29, 2009 in Dallas, Texas. The host city provides an informative and imaginative backdrop of this year’s theme of SPRAWL. Like other metropolitan areas since the 1960s, Dallas has seen suburban sprawl reshape its civic geography and identity. But the concept of sprawl also prompts discussions of environmental conservation, the appropriate use of land and resources, the loss and/or renewal of city centers and close-knit neighborhood communities.
