Call for Work: Deadline 27 March 2008

ENTER THE ANNUAL JURIED PHOTOGRAPHY SHOW!

Entries for the 2007-2008 Annual Juried Photography Show are now being accepted. All currently enrolled Webster students, in any program, are eligible. This year, the winners of the Juried Show will also be honored as the Photography category winners of the Webbies.

The exhibition will run in the May Gallery from 4 April - 3 May 2008, with an opening reception on Friday, 4 April 2008, from 5:00-7:00 p.m.

Any work that involves a photographic process is welcomed, but the work should have been produced during the past year, and while a student at Webster. Work must be unframed, ready to hang, and matted or mounted or even a print with enough border to hang. (We generally recommend at least 2 inches/5 cm white border.) Outside dimensions should be 8x10", 8½x11", 11x14", 14x17", 13x19", 16x20" or 20x24". (Yes, our glass is mostly cut in U.S. sizes.) Other sizes will only be considered if (a) glass is already available in the May Gallery supply storage, or (b) the student supplies glass for hanging. A maximum of four pieces per individual may be submitted. No fees are required.

Work should be left in the Kirk House, or sent to

All work submitted must have student’s name, phone number, email and title of the piece (if any) legibly written on, or affixed to, the back of each piece. Failure to include this information will disqualify the work from consideration for the show. Work submitted should be protected in a box, case, or appropriate envelope or wrapper with the student's name on the outside.

If you are interested in having your work reproduced in the mini-catalog that accompanies the show, send a file attachment (300 ppi, approximately 4x6 print size) to . It must be the same image as you submit for the exhibition; be sure your name is part of the file name. Only images selected by the jurors will be considered for publication.
