Teen Photo Contest: Objects Tell Stories (Deadline January 10)
Inspired by the exhibition Ilit Azoulay: Mere Things, the Jewish Museum invites middle and high school students to submit photographs that feature meaningful objects from their own lives that depict a personal, cultural, or historical connection.
What story can an object tell about you, your community, or your family? How might we connect to parts of our own identity through objects, and how might they help us connect with one another? How can these ideas be represented in photographs?
To participate, students must submit an original photograph of an object, or group of objects, that hold meaning for them. The subject of the photograph should be the object(s), though we encourage you to consider the world that they inhabit—the people, the environment—when composing your image.
All images and content must be the student’s own original work and free from copyright restrictions. This prompt is open to your creative and artistic interpretation and students may submit up to three distinct photographs. Winning photographs will be featured on the Jewish Museum's social media platforms, and will also receive an American Express gift card. Please use this form to submit your photograph by January 10, 2025.
