Joy and the Everyday

Juror: Kaitlin Booher, PhD

Beaumont and Nancy Newhall Curatorial Fellow at the Museum of Modern Art

Winter Group Show
This Exhibition will utilize both the Main and Maloof Galleries

For this CFE we аre interested in seeing the ways in which you experience and capture the idea of joy through things that you see and do everyday. Perhaps it is an amazing view, a peaceful vista, a humorous street scene, or an extraordinary object or place that you cherish. Joy and the Everyday is defined as an emotion of great happiness caused by something exceptionally good or satisfying – a source that sparks pure delight. As photographers, we have all captured moments that make us laugh, feel festive and elated. Sometimes joy comes from a feeling of love or something that we value greatly. We want to see photos that reflect Joy and make you happy when you look at them. Let’s spread a little Joy!

Forty-five (45) images will be selected.
