The Gallery Art & Design in Richmond, VA is Hosting Their First Annual International Juried Photography Competition

The Gallery Art & Design in Richmond, VA is hosting their first annual International Juried Photography competition to benefit the renowned Richmond's Children Hospital.
This year's theme is "Colors of Life." The deadline for submissions is Sept 1, 2006. Anyone may apply (18+ of age) with any photographic medium. There will be a prestigious jury composed of local and international art curators and collectors electing the top three finalists who will receive awards of $1000, $500, and $250 respectively. The Top Ten Finalists will exhibit at the culminating night gala in February '07 at the historic Jefferson Hotel Ballroom; there will be an awards ceremony for the artists and a silent auction of their work with the net proceeds going to the Children's Hospital to help double the size of their Transitional Care Unit (TCU). There will be International media coverage, and thus an opportunity to introduce work to an International market.
