Changes to the Photography Calendar Competition

Please note that the judges have changed (see the link to the form on the top of this page). The new judges are:

Rachel Ackerman, NWACC Art Club Member and NWACC Librarian
Lynn Berkowitz, Director of Education, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art
Victor Chalfant, NWACC Faculty
Mike Eckels, Public Relations Committee Chair
Genny Olsen, NWACC Art Club Member and NWACC Librarian
Eric Smith, NWACC Art Club Advisor

The reasons for this change are 1) Some of the earlier listed judges wanted to participate in the contest and they had to be recused. 2) I recused myself (Stephanie Lewis) as judge since I am cataloging all of the images and know all the names of the photographers ahead of judging. These changes will create more fairness in the competition.

Also, in addition to the prize money, each top winner will receive a free calendar.

Remember, when submitting your photographs, to make them at least a resolution of 200 dpi.

ALSO, THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION IS NOVEMBER 15!
