Juried Photography Exhibit Open for entries and Intro to Digital Photography class coming in February

2022 Juried Photography Award Winners

Calling all photographers! Beloit Art Center is now accepting submissions for the annual juried photography show that is held at the art center every March. This community event gives photographers from the area the opportunity to have their work displayed in a gallery. Each year the art center receives entries from over 35 individual non-professional artists. The photographs will be reviewed and scored by a panel of three judges. The top submissions will be displayed in the gallery and awards will be presented on March 3, 2023 during the First Friday Gallery Reception beginning at 5:00 pm. Registration for the juried photo exhibit and submission of images can be done online at www.beloitartcenter.com and is open until January 29, 2023 (by 2pm).
​
Not ready to enter a photography competition? Beloit Art Center also offers photography classes. In February, Intro to Digital Photography I will be offered. This course is for those with any type of digital camera who want to get out of Auto and start unleashing the creative potential of their camera. Students will learn how to utilize shutter speed, aperture, and ISO to control exposure and explore how aperture and shutter speed can be used creatively. They will also learn how a camera meters the light in a scene and the options our camera gives us to achieve the best focus. The four-week course will be held on Mondays in February starting February 6. Class will be in the first-floor classroom starting at 5:30 pm.
