Madrid, Spain. The invitation is aimed at Euskal Etxea members; you can also become a member to participate. The contest’s main goal is to select 12 photos that will make up next year’s calendar. The theme of the photos is “Basque” and can be taken anywhere “although special attention will be given to those portraying Basques in Madrid,” the club specified.
Photos should be in color, and originals and not modified. Besides choosing photos for the calendar, the jury of specialists will also choose the top three to receive a cash prize. Complete contest rules here. The deadline to submit photos is October 23rd at 9pm (Madrid time) and the jury’s decision will be announced on November 7th on the club’s website
Due to the pandemic, photos received will be displayed virtually on the club’s website during the first two weeks of December. In case there is a positive evolution in terms of preventative measures for COVID-19, the possibility of doing an in person exhibit will be evaluated.
