Norcross Email Extravaganza Vol. 389
A weekly email for the young & forever young in Historic Norcross
DID YOU KNOW...?
Explore Gwinnett maintains a location database that film and television production teams search when scouting places across the county! Property owners can submit photos of their home or business by emailing lisa@exploregwinnett.org. Include exterior shots, a few main interior rooms, and a wider street view. The photos do not need to be professional, but they should be current, well lit, and in focus. If approved, your property will be added to the database production teams use when planning shoots in Gwinnett!
