Call for Entries – SohoPhotoGallery 
Deadline August 22: 
Soho Photo initiated its Annual Alternative Processes Competition in 2005 with the objective of recognizing the achievements of those photographers who continue to craft their images the way photographers have done since the beginning of the medium. These alternative processes include (but are not limited to) Albumen, Cyanotype, Van Dyke Brown, Platinum/Palladium, Gum Bichromate, Bromoil, Salt Print, Ambrotype, Tintype, Image Transfer and Ziatype. 19th century photographic processes dominate this genre, however some modern methods have joined the accepted ranks. Alternative photographic printing processes result in the creation of one-of-a-kind handmade images, with the imprint of each photographer’s special individuality and artistry.

Call for Entries – Media ICONS Juried Photography Exhibit 2014
Deadline August 29: 
All photographers are invited to enter “Media ICONS: Man-made” Juried Photography Exhibit. Creativity is encouraged around the theme of “Man-made,” for photographs captured in the town of Media, PA and anywhere in Delaware County. The juror for Media Arts Council’s 8th annual competition is Rob Cardillo, who has been photographing gardens, plants, people and man made elements for over twenty years. His award-winning work appears regularly in publications, advertisements and websites (www.robcardillo.com). We believe Rob will bring a rich creative eye to the jurying of this year’s show. Four cash prizes will be awarded. 
All selected photos will be displayed at the Media ICONS Photography Exhibit, 609 West State Street in Media, October 11th to November 8th. The opening reception and 
awards will be on October 11th, during 2nd Saturday Arts Stroll. 

Call for Art – Unframed.us
Deadline August 1:
The exhibition confronts the viewer with a fascinating array of everyday, ordinary things, and in the process gets us to take a close look at the objects and our encounters with them in our daily lives. These “mundane things” are the stuff that we encounter daily without almost any thought. They are overlooked, ignored or simply taken for granted. This exhibition of objects takes a close look at the all too frequently unnoticed objects that many artists are turning to for inspiration or the creation of their art. 

Please submit 5 images of your work, CV, and statement. Entry fee is $15.
