Exposition nationale de photographie avec jury 2026

The 2026 National Juried Photography Exhibition (NJPE) is a biennial event that showcases the breadth of contemporary photography from artists across the United States. Hosted by the Delaplaine Arts Center in Frederick, Maryland, the exhibition runs from November 7 to November 29, 2026. Artists may submit one to three high‑resolution images, with no thematic, size, or media restrictions, provided the work is original, created within the past two years, and has not previously been displayed at the Delaplaine. Submission is open to all artists, with a national eligibility requirement. The entry fee is $25 for members and $35 for non‑members, payable through the CaFÉ™ platform. Accepted works will be displayed in the gallery space and are eligible for awards: a grand prize of $1,000, second place $500, third place $250, and an honorable mention of $125. The Delaplaine will insure all accepted pieces from drop‑off until pick‑up, and will provide drop‑off and pick‑up services between October 25 and November 30, 2026. Artists are responsible for framing and shipping their work. The event offers a unique opportunity for national exposure, professional recognition, and the chance to win a substantial award.
