We have an opportunity to turn a tragic loss into a legacy for aspiring photographers, with the creation of the Tyler R. Deardon Memorial Fund.

Tyler loved photography and took classes through the Plymouth (MA) Arts Council. He exhibited several photographs through their annual shows and his work hangs in the homes of many relatives and friends.

He passed away unexpectedly in September 2022. Only 29, a lifetime of capturing and sharing images from his special perspective was cut short.

Now you have the chance to support upcoming photographers and their dreams of making a difference in the world through their photos. Please consider making a donation, one-time or ongoing, to our new fund which will be used to provide grants to upcoming, practicing photographers who seek to enhance their careers through classes, equipment and more.

The winner or winners of the annual award will be announced at the Plymouth Arts Council's Annual Photography Show in Plymouth, MA.

All donations are tax-deductible, as this fund has attained 501(c)3 status.

Thank you for helping us to honor Tyler's memory in this important way.
