The exhibition will run in the May Gallery from 1 - 29 April 2015, with a reception and awards presentation on Friday, 8 April, from 5-7 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 may be matted or mounted, or with sufficient border to be hung under glass. (A border of at least 1½ inches or 3½ ~ 4 cm is suggested.) Work must be unframed and ready to hang. Outside dimensions should be 8x10", 8½x11", 11x14", 11x17", 13x19", 16x20", 17x22" or 20x24". 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. (Submissions by students from international campuses in metric sizes will be accommodated.) A maximum of four pieces per individual may be submitted. No fees are required.

Photos not selected for the show may be picked up in the gallery beginning Monday, 28 March. Photos that are in the show may be picked up in the gallery beginning Monday, 2 May. Photos not picked up by 1 June 2016 will be discarded. Entries from outside St. Louis will be returned by post to the campus of origin.
