RUTLAND—The Chaffee Art Center invites amateur and professional photographers of all ages to participate in its annual photo contest, “Faces in Harmony.” Entrants must submit photos at the Chaffee Art Center during drop-off hours: Jan. 17, noon-4 p.m., and Jan. 18, 11 a.m.-2 p.m.
This year, a professional category will be introduced alongside existing categories for youth (12 and under), teens (13-18), and Adults (18+). Public voting begins when the exhibit opens on Jan. 24. Winners will include 1st and 2nd Overall, with a People’s Choice award in each category. Participants can submit up to three 8”x10” mounted or framed photos reflecting the theme “Faces in Harmony,” featuring humans, pets, animals, or similar subjects. Photos must be original, unstaged, and unaltered beyond resizing or cropping. Amateurs submit for free; Chaffee members in the Professional Category also enter for free, while non-members pay $5 per entry (up to three). Unsold photos must be collected on Feb. 28 (11 a.m.-4 p.m.), or they become the property of the Chaffee Art Center.
