Call for Entries

Travel expands our sense of the world—and ourselves. It introduces us to new faces, unfamiliar landscapes, and the small details that define a place. Travel: People, Places, Things invites photographers to share images that reflect the essence of movement, exploration, and cultural curiosity.

From sweeping vistas to quiet portraits, from market stalls to roadside relics, we are looking for photographs that convey the spirit of travel in all its forms. Whether taken across the globe or closer to home, we welcome images that reveal the stories, beauty, and surprises found along the way.

We are honored to have Laura Moya as juror for Travel: People, Places, Things. She will select up to 35 images in our Middlebury, Vermont Exhibition gallery and another 40 images for our Online Gallery. All 75 images will be reproduced in the exhibition catalog and remain permanently on our website, and be promoted on social media with links to photographers' URL. 

Submission Fee: $39 for 5 images, $6 for each additional image
