Concorso per borse di studio LSI per la fotografia 2026

The LSI Photography Grant Competition, supported by the LSI Philanthropy Fund and Leica North America, seeks photographers globally to submit in‑progress, personal, still‑image projects that explore themes of people, places, communities, histories, or issues with care, dignity, and intention. The annual grant provides a $7,500 USD cash award, a new Leica camera and lens, and a chance for the winner and runner‑up to exhibit their work at Leica Gallery Paris during the LSI Spring Shoot in May/June 2027, along with additional financial support to complete the project. Applications are open to all photographers worldwide; no Leica equipment is required. An entry fee of $35 applies. The submission period runs from July 24, 2026, to September 4, 2026 (or until 200 applications are received). Applicants apply via the provided Picter contest link and may contact richard@madcrouch.com for questions.
