Photographic Center Northwest (PCNW) is pleased to announce a call for entries to our 23rd annual Juried Photography Exhibition, Distinction with our esteemed juror, Kris Graves.
This annual juried exhibition is one of the most anticipated shows in PCNW's gallery programming. In addition to possibly having your work included in our gallery space, your entry fee also helps to support our non-profit educational institution dedicated to photography. Money raised through this call will go towards supporting PCNW's scholarship fund, 20-25 annual free public programs, and free public gallery access to all. Emerging and experienced photographers are invited to submit to this opportunity. Single and/or group selections are made by the Juror, Kris Graves, and will result in an exhibition in the PCNW gallery from March 26 – May 3, 2020.
Awards:
First place = $500 cash
Second place = $250 Glazer's Camera gift certificate
People's choice = Hahnemuhle paper gift certificate (winner announce at the end of the exhibition)
All place winners, people's choice, and honorable mentions will also receive a one-year PCNW Supporter Membership and free registration to our upcoming summer event, Chase the Light.
Please note that DISTINCTION is the name of the exhibition and not a theme for the call. But, of course, you want to enter images that are distinct and will stand out, setting your work apart from others.
