Each year, the PRC is pleased to host a juried exhibition with a nationally-renowned juror. This prestigious competition is a great opportunity to view new work as well as see topics in which contemporary minds are engaged. With only about a dozen artists selected from close to 300 entries, the PRC Juried Exhibition is a highly competitive and revered program. All winners exhibit several images each in the PRC gallery.
Guest jurors represent esteemed curators, photographers, and professionals from the region and beyond. As each juror brings a different perspective, the show is unique and fresh every year. Past guest jurors of the PRC Juried Exhibition have included Russell Hart, Lesley A. Martin, Jen Bekman, Jeanine Fijol, Alison Devine Nordström, Rachel Rosenfield Lafo, Chris Enos, Diana Gaston, Deborah Martin Kao, Richard Woodward, and Edward Earle, among others.
In celebration of the PRC's 30th anniversary in 2006, and to reflect the mission and function of our annual photography competition, we changed the name of the PRC Members' Exhibition to EXPOSURE: The Annual PRC Juried Exhibition.
