Beauty by A Smith Gallery 2026

An international juried photography call inviting broad interpretations of "beauty" for an online exhibition, publication and solo-show awards at A Smith Gallery.

Open internationally to photographers working across mediums and styles, the call asks for images interpreting beauty through ideas like grace, charm, allure and elegance, with no separate entry categories. Juror Wendi Schneider will select up to 47 images for an online exhibition (Oct 16–Nov 26, 2026), 27 of which will appear in a hardbound book called The 27. Top honors include the Juror Award and Directors Award, each granting a month-long online solo exhibition, while the Visitors Award ($100) is decided by Instagram likes. Images previously shown in an A Smith Gallery competition are ineligible, and AI-generated images are currently discouraged.
