All students are invited to submit entries for the 5th Juried Student Photography Show: “AMUSEMENT.”

AMUSEMENT. Spring 2024 Juried Photography Exhibition in the Erhler Photography Gallery. Amusement... The exhibition will run from Wednesday, May 1 though Sunday, Nov. 3.

How to submit

Students can enter up to three photographs. For each submitted photography, you will need: title, medium (digital, gelatin silver, cyanotype, mixed media, etc.), year completed, value/price, and if it is for sale.

Submit your entry

Entries are due by 11:59 p.m. Tuesday, April 16.

Photo prompt:

Amusement by definition is the state or experience of finding something funny — something that causes laughter or provides entertainment. Spring already brings wonder and joy; now, consider how you can capture that feeling in a photograph. What inspires you to pick up the camera? What are simple things that make you happy? What guides you in your creation? 

Whatever that may be for you, capture it — and share it with us for consideration in this show — as joy and inspiration are meant to be shared.
