The Center for Photographic Art, located in the beach resort town of Carmel, California, will host a juried photography exhibition and auction this year and invites submissions from members and non-members (non-members pay a small fee.) Currently the gallery showcases a variety of photos taken by, and of, Ansel Adams, curated by the artist’s family. Highlights of the show include the captions, describing critical reviews and the professional and ecological impact of Adams’ work.

Submissions for the upcoming event, which will benefit both the accepted artists and the Center for Photographic Art, are due July 15th. The Center requests images on a CD initially, and then prints for those who are selected to take part in the gala auction.

More information, contacts, and full submission guidelines and instructions are available here: http://www.photographicart.com/cpa/juryexhibit.html

Would encourage everyone to visit the exhibit – was personally inspired by the description of curator Stieglitz as ‘allowing the artists to work and be shown with dignity, and to work as they chose.’
