Call for Entries: INTERSECTIONS Festival

Now that the DCist Exposed contest is closed (read DCist next Wednesday to find out if you've won!), let's move right along to our next project. This one moves quick, so please get your photos in ASAP!

****
INTERSECTIONS is a nine-day all-arts festival. A meeting place – onstage and off – for people who love music, theater, film, spoken word and dance. We have selected the best professional, emerging, community and student performers from DC and beyond. We are all ages, races and cultures. We celebrate connection, collaboration and innovation.

Ten Miles Square will host a photography show to run during the festival that celebrates INTERSECTIONS' goal of being a place were arts merge and cultures meet. This time, instead of "Ten Miles Square" where we focus on all of D.C., we're looking for photographers who can take on the ten square miles surrounding the Atlas neighborhood -- capturing connections, innovation, intersection of cultures, ages, races. We'll feature your work in a photography show as part of INTERSECTIONS, tying together the diversity and dynamism of the performers on stage with the vibrancy of the neighborhood outside the Atlas.

The winners work will be hung unframed in the Atlas Theater and available for sale; winners also receive one festival pass good for entry to every performance on a space available basis. Submit your work to heather@tenmilessquare.com before February 7 for consideration. Winners will be announced February 10th and must bring their unframed print to Atlas by the 17th.

You may submit up to 5 photos by either sending a link to a Flickr set or sending the photos in .zip file. Of course, your photos will never be used without your permission.
