Call for entries for an International Photography Exhibition. This month-long exhibition will be a photography exhibition with an open theme. Free to submit, open to everyone.

The Glasgow Gallery of Photography's mission is to advance the arts, heritage and cultural sector through exhibitions of photographic works as a means for artistic, community and personal expression.

The Glasgow Gallery of Photography is running a month-long exhibition in June called Open. Our Open exhibitions are opened themed, meaning you can submit any work, whether is portrait, or landscape, street photography or still life, anything and everything is welcome in our Open exhibition. So if you have work that didn't fit with any of our other exhibitions then this is the call for entries to submit to.

Open is an open call for photographers to submit up to 8 images for this open-themed exhibition.

Photographers who are selected will have their work displayed in a month-long exhibition in our gallery, with their work also appearing online in an online gallery on our website.

All participants who are selected to take part in the exhibition will receive a digital certificate of participation and will also be put forward for a chance to be named Photographer of the Month.

We want to see work from both emerging and established photographers. You do not need to be a professional photographer to participate as we believe that photography is for everyone.

How to participate:

Submissions are FREE.  If your work is selected there will be a participation fee of £48.
This fee covers the cost of everything. We will print, install and un-install the work in our gallery space.

*Please note that the frames used belong to the gallery*

Unless otherwise stated images will either be printed 18"x12, 16"x12", or 12"x12" in size depending on the image.

Photographers are free to collect their work after the exhibition, we will hold prints for 1 month.

The deadline for this exhibition:  2nd February 2024

1. Choose up to 8 images, 72 ppi is fine for the initial submission.
   (If selected you will be asked to supply images at 300ppi and  3000 Pixels minimum on the shortest side. Work will be displayed in various sizes).

2. Name your image files with your name e,g Firstname-Surname1, Firstname-Surname2, etc
   If you do not name your files correctly, it could result in your files getting lost or misplaced.
   Please only use your name, do not include image titles or any other information, this can be added elsewhere in your submission.

3. Make sure your images are JPEG files. We can only accept jpegs as this is what the printing company that we use requires.

Once the deadline has passed, photographers who have been selected will be contacted and asked to pay the participation fee. The gallery then does the rest.
