Atlanta Photography Group (APG) is now taking entries for our annual Airport Show. Juror Amy Miller will select 30 photographs to exhibit in the central atrium of the world’s busiest airport: Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL). ATL has an average of 260,000 visitors a day, making this an opportunity to have your photographs seen by literally millions of travelers from all over the world.

This exhibition will be featured in Atlanta Celebrates Photography (ACP) Festival Guide and work will be for sale – artists receive 60% commission.

APG along with Hartsfield Jackson airport will handle the framing and installing of the artwork. Artists will supply high resolution digital images to APG, and pay a nominal fee for APG to produce a high-quality archival pigment print. (see details for more information).

All image files must meet these specifications:

  • 20×26” paper size and aspect ratio (paper only). The Airport uses their own frames.
  • APG can make the prints.
  • All images will have WHITE border around the image.
  • The border will be approx. 1”, but will vary based on the size and aspect ratio of the actual image.
  • All images will be printed full image, no cropping.

APG offers need-based Scholarships for all of our exhibitions that will cover the submission entry fee. Don’t let a lack of funds prevent you from sharing your vision with the world. Be a part of the photography community and show your work today. Click HERE for more details.
