Hard Workers Club, Parts & Crafts, Tourisms, and The Thousands Melbourne, are very pleased and enormously excited to announce the call for submissions for the inaugural IPF Photo Prize 2012.
The Independent Photography Festival (IPF) will utilise the strengths and skills of the photographic community HWC so prides itself in being a part of to further bring to the forefront the multi-faceted, far-reaching, diverse, and prolific nature of what we’re all working hard at.
The Photo Prize is one of a week-long programme of events to be held in Melbourne from Monday 2 - Sunday 8 April 2012, designed - and aiming - to celebrate and highlight the best of what our community of independent and autonomous photographers and creatives has to offer.
They'll be exhibiting all acceptable submissions after a preliminary review as a part of the IPF 2012 program, with all prints on sale to the public by silent auction, and with all proceeds from work(s) sold returned to the artist(s).
HWC also asked some of their more local friends to help them create a set of relevant and righteous prizes for their 3 Prize Categories (Judge’s Panel 1st & 2nd Place and a People’s Choice Award) and they're gunning for a couple more big boy prizes to add to the mix, so until they have all that locked in, they’re holding back on what’s on offer, but rest assured they’ll look after you.
We might try and make a publication of the work after the event, too.
Head over to the temporary IPF site and click on the Submissions Form link, read the T&C’s, pay, and post your prints to us.
Please be aware and keep in mind this is a call out for PRINTED IMAGES and not digital files (JPGs, TIFs, etc).
All entries must be posted, to be received by THURSDAY 1 MARCH 2012 (01/03/12) at5PM AEST, to:
AUSTRALIA
Stand by for more info on the Photo Prize and IPF - we’ll be dropping the whole thing over the next couple months.
