Embracing Rejection: Thoughts on Juried Exhibitions & Contests

By admin | Published: February 2, 2012

I’ve been thinking about juried competitions quite a bit recently – I’ve been entering many (and getting in a few), and most of my photographic friends and clients are doing the same. Before I go on, I’d like to clarify that I believe that juried events are valuable to artists, particularly emerging artists. The obvious [...]
