Inviting amateur photographer to enter!
The City of Sagamihara in Japan, a friendship city of Wuxi, China, Toronto and Trail, Canada, has been hosting the annual photo festival, “Photo City Sagamihara”, since 2001, directing a spotlight on photography culture that is supported by a wide range of population, in a century where the spiritual aspect of culture is becoming more appreciated.
This photo festival offers a forum for professional and amateur photographers to showcase their works. Various events are incorporated surrounding the photo exhibition, making the festival a cultural event in which every Sagamihara citizen can participate.
Sagamihara positioned this event as a “new culture created in Sagamihara” and has issued an invitation for photographers to enter works for exhibition both in Japan and overseas. Sagamihara is now inviting amateur photographers in its friendship cities, Toronto and Trail, to enter one of the events of the photo festival, the Amateur photo contest.
Winning works will be exhibited at the photo exhibition in Japan, as well as in future “Sagamihara Exhibitions” to be held overseas.
