The Arts & Culture Alliance of Greater Knoxville announces a call for photographic works for its seventh annual Knoxville Photo 2019. The national call for entries is open to all artists. This juried exhibition was developed to provide a forum for artists to compete on a national scale and display their work. Approximately 40 photographic works from both emerging and established artists will be selected by the juror, Lynette Miller, for exhibition in the main gallery of the Emporium Center at 100 S. Gay Street, Knoxville’s downtown arts anchor location, from July 5-26, 2019. The Emporium is free and open to the public Monday-Friday, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM (and additional hours for special events).

The deadline for entries to be received is Sunday, May 5, 2019.

Prizes include over $1,000 in cash awards, and exhibiting artists will receive a catalog of the exhibition.
