Local photographers can get ready to display their photographs. The 31st Annual Juried Photography Exhibit for Fremont residents and Fremont photography club members will be held from April 4 to May 8.
The event is a joint venture of Fremont Cultural Arts Council (FCAC), the Fremont Photographic Society and the City of Fremont. Photographs selected by a panel of judges will be on display at Fremont Main Library. An opening night reception will be held on Saturday, April 4.
This is a juried photography show, open to Fremont residents, students, employees of Fremont businesses and members of FCAC and Fremont Photographic Society.
Entries must be submitted by the original photographer who is the sole owner of the copyright. An entry fee of $6 per photograph is charged with a maximum of five prints per entrant. The student category for entries is limited to any full-time student under the age of 25 with separate prizes. Entries by minors must have the approval of a parent or guardian.
Digital images must be submitted using the online form. Significant digital image enhancements and modifications are permitted, so long as all important elements appearing in the image are photographic in origin.
Entries will be judged on the basis of creativity, photographic quality and effectiveness in conveying beauty or a concept. Entries must also be acceptable for general viewing.
Judges will select the digital images that will be included in the show. In addition to the awards selected by the judges, the visitors at the opening night reception will vote to select the winner of the “People’s Choice Award.” Winning photographs, along with the photographer’s name and information about the photo may be displayed on the Fremont Cultural Arts Council website.
Specific details and information along with the entry forms can be downloaded from fremontculturalartscouncil.org. Photographers will be emailed regarding selected photos to print on March 7. Selected prints will be received in the FCAC office on March 28 and 29.
