As part of the Valley Photo Center Walker Evans Celebration, we are sponsoring an Evan’s themed photography contest. The Metropolitan Museum of Art wrote that Evans was “the progenitor of the documentary tradition in American photography.” Entries should be inspired by his work and will be judged by London based street photographer, Stephen Leslie, who will be in the United States to do a street photography workshop on Saturday October 5, 2024 for a small fee and give a lecture about Walker Evans on Sunday October 6, 2024 for the Valley Photo Center that is free and open to the public.


Digital entries for the contest are open now and will be accepted until midnight on September 24, 2024. The finalists will be printed for a Valley Photo Center gallery show. There will be award ribbons many prizes including books, photo equipment, and a Canon ink jet printer .
