"A DECADE OF IMAGES 2000-2010" JURIED COMPETITION
Sponsored by Women In Photography International
DEADLINE April 4, 2010
CALL FOR ENTRIES:
Women In Photography International (womeninphotography.org) is excited to present "A Decade of Images 2000-2010" Juried call for entries to all photographers and artists.
Choose images that made either a personal or public impression, brought you joy, awareness, caused pain or tugged on your heart strings -- how you see the world in which you live, the world around you. The climate changes, events, parties, weddings, every day living. Think of the Edward Steichen's "Family of Man" exhibition. This is a capsule of time representing and showcasing women's work during the years 2000-2010.
Become part of WIPI'S first decade of the 21st century online archive!
WIPI continues to honor women photographers worldwide with an online presence through competitions, galleries, feature stories and our Hire-a-WIPI Pro directory.
