A DECADE OF IMAGES 2000-2010
JURIED COMPETITION

CALL FOR ENTRIES:

Women In Photography International is excited to present "A Decade of Images" 2010 Competition call for entries to all photographers and artists.
Choose images that made either a personal or public impression, brought you joy, awareness, caused pain or tugged on your heart strings -- how you see the world in which you live, the world around you. The climate changes, events, parties, weddings, every day living. Think of the Edward Steichen’s "Family of Man" exhibition. This is a capsule of time representing and showcasing women's work during the years 2000-2010.
Become part of WIPI'S first decade of the 21st century online archive!
