Quay Arts’ Young People’s Photography Competition Showcase Exhibition

Announcement of winner: Sat 19 Dec 2pm / All Welcome

The Learning Curve Gallery is to be transformed during the festive season, becoming a showcase of the finest photographs taken by the most talented young photographers on the Island. Quay Arts launched a photo competition aimed at young photographers earlier this year (August). The exhibition of the 20 short-listed works from the competition themed: The WOW! Factor will be exhibited in the Learning Curve Gallery.

The response to the competition from was extremely high with over 50 entries. From nature to fashion, inspiring landscapes to macro images, there’s something for everyone in this eclectic mix of photographs by young people aged 14 – 18.

The theme was the ‘the Wow Factor!’ which meant that images had to take your breath away! It wasn’t subject specific but photographs needed to have the ‘wow’ factor, had to have a unique artistic quality and also be technically sound.

Submissions overall were of an extremely high standard making it tremendously difficult for the panel of three judges to finally select the top twenty!

These short-listed images will be printed (courtesy of wight balance photography plus and framed by Quay Arts to form the exhibition in the Learning Curve Gallery.
