A New Normal: An open call for quarantine photography

We are excited to announce that we are partnering with our good friends at Junior Magazine and PhotoIreland to bring you an exciting call for images.

A New Normal calls for photographers to respond to our current climate by using their medium to find joy, hope and beauty in times of stress, anxiety, and boredom. We want to see your best images made within a 2km radius of your house. Beyond that, the criteria are open to your interpretation. 

Our favourite images will be paired with a commissioned piece of poetry and published in an online gallery on the District website as well as being featured in a printed zine as part of PhotoIreland’s TLP Editions.

Submissions are open now and will remain open for two weeks. If you have any questions please email us at submissions@districtmagazine.ie
