The goal is to have a show full of a wide variety of images showing the versatility of this disappearing medium. Therefore the theme is open. Help us show the wide range of subjects captured on Polaroid brand instant film.
To include your photographs in the show, please send:
Up to six of your best Polaroid images, a self-addressed return envelope for all unsold photographs, a flat entry fee of $10 – click here for payment information *now accepting Paypal* Artists receive 70% of all sales.
It is important that all photographs are labeled on the back with the following information:

By submitting your images you acknowledge that you own all rights to them. You also agree to allow us to use your photographs to promote the show. If you would rather we didn’t use your images either on online or in print, please let us know.
While all submitted photographs will be included in the show, we do reserve the right to use our discretion in what is shown. This shouldn’t be an issue as long as you use Polaroid instant film and aren’t doing anything illegal. And you aren’t. Right?
