For more than 25 years, the Arts Council of Pendleton has invited artists from the region to exhibit their artwork for the community to enjoy. The exhibit has had different names and venues over the years, but the spirit of the event has remained the same - to celebrate the act of artistic creation.
We invite you to enter this year’s Open Regional Photography Exhibition. The event is open to both amateur and professional artists, in both adult and teen categories.
ELIGIBILITY: Open to all amateur & professional photographers age 18 and older living in eastern Oregon and southeastern Washington. Teen Category for artists 13 - 17 years old. Work must have been completed in the last five years.
SPECIFICATIONS: Artists may enter up to two works of photography. Both film and digital photographs will be accepted. Artists may use traditional darkroom techniques or computer software to alter images, provided that original photography is the primary medium used. Prize categories will be announced prior to the drop-off date. Each piece should be appropriately presented, mounted or framed, ready to hang with screw eyes and wire attached (no saw-tooth hangers please). Works are limited in size to 16 square feet.
