Travel Photography Awards - AAP Magazine 45

Our 45th printed issue of AAP Magazine will feature the best projects showcasing the theme "TRAVELS".

My life is shaped by the urgent need to wander and observe, and my camera is my passport.
- Steve McCurry

We are looking for your travel photographs, near and far, to the edge of the earth and to the places perhaps known only to you. Whether you're hauling around a view camera and a tripod or just pulling a mobile phone out of your back pocket, we want to see what you've captured and how you're telling your story.

There's a world out there to explore. Open your eyes to its landscapes, people, cultures - on your doorstep or 10,000 miles away. Expand our horizons!

Backroads 2: Further On Ahead

"Backroads 2: Further On Ahead" seeks to expand the popular 2021 theme of "art, less traveled".  This exhibit showcases works of art that venture off the beaten path, especially with regard to travel. Artwork could include places or experiences involving hidden gems, special or unusual places, wanderings, odd travel, strange encounters, and/or lost and fading places.  "Further On Ahead" is a summer exhibit, and could convey a sense of summer fun in the works (i.e. not winter), and that the journey never ends...

Works can be from any medium, and are accepted from Emerging, Mid-Career, and/or Professional Artists.

"Backroads 2: Further On Ahead" In-Person opening reception party will be held Saturday, July 9th, 2022 at 6 PM. 

Backroads: Art Less-Travelled

Vestige Concept Gallery Presents: Backroads: Art Less-Travelled. This exhibit seeks to showcase works of art that venture off the beaten path, especially with regard to travel.   Artwork could include places or experiences involving hidden gems, special or unusual places, wanderings, odd travel, strange encounters, and/or "lost" and fading places.

We are seeking artwork of any kind, from Emerging, Mid-Career, and/or Professional Artists.  Work should somehow relate to the theme of the show.

"Backroads: Art Less-Travelled" In-Person opening reception will be held Saturday, June 5th, at 6 PM.
