*There was conflicting information published about the month of the exhibition and the date of the First Friday event. Vicki says, “Oops, sorry.” The information posted here is correct.
The Basics:
- Photographers must be non-professional; this is an amateur contest. All entries must be photographs taken within the seven counties served by INLC: Spokane, Stevens, Adams, Lincoln, Kootenai, Bonner, and Pend Oreille.
- Please submit digital images – they must be original, unretouched digital photos (jpg, tif, or psd) at 300 dpi; The photo should be high enough resolution that the photo can be clearly printed in 8×10″ size.
- Photos will be judged in digital format and then printed by INLC at INLC’s expense. Credit will be given to the photographer in all future uses by INLC.
- Entries must be accompanied by the signed entry and release form (only one per contestant) and delivered to INLC by 5 PM on December 1, 2015. Entrant’s signature constitutes a release to INLC for the right to use, reproduce, publish, and display the photographs without further compensation. *See full release in the contest rules.
- Winners will be notified by December 10, 2015.
