Hi,

Welcome to The Open Call List #53!

In this weekly newsletter, I share opportunities for photographers for exhibitions, publications, fellowships, grants, residencies, jobs, and more. My goal is to make the photography world more accessible, especially to emerging artists. While I include both free opportunities and calls for entry with submission fees, I only share opportunities that favor artists.

Opening Remarks:
Last week, The Open Call List published a bonus article (for paid subscribers) highlighting one of the best free, annual open calls, specifically for photographers seeking sales and institutional acquisitions. The open call is ending later this month. Read about the opportunity it here.

This week’s Open Call List contains 21 open calls, eight of which offer free submission. The list includes online, in-gallery, outdoor, and traveling exhibitions, fellowships and awards for photographers working on sustained projects, calls for print publications, calls for solo exhibition proposals, calls for alternative process and photocopy work, fully-funded residencies, and more.


Please read this note about newsletter pricing:

I make The Open Call List available for free in the spirit of maximizing accessibility in the photo world. That said, I am a one-person team and a fellow artist. If you find the list helpful and you have the means, I ask that you opt in to a pay-what-you-can subscription. Paid subscribers receive access to a growing collection of evergreen monthly bonus guides including:

  • 18 Photography Publications with Free, Rolling Submissions

  • 24 Photography Festivals Around the World with Open Calls

  • 12 Fully-Funded Photography Residencies with Darkrooms

  • 15 Open Call Photobook Awards and Publishing Prizes
