The call for entries will be open from May 1 through June 1, 2026.

Juried by Philadelphia-based photographer Andrew Piccone, the exhibition encourages artists to reflect on the evolution of the American landscape over the past 250 years. This includes not only physical terrains, but also the technological, societal, political, scientific, and artistic environments that shape contemporary life.

“Amidst social movements, climate change, political turmoil, and the proliferation of invasive technology in our lives, now more than ever we as photographers have an urgent sense of duty to document our changing landscapes in an attempt to better understand the how and the why of these transformations,” said Piccone.

Photographers are invited to submit work created through analog photographic methods, including a wide range of film types—color negative, black-and-white, slide, and instant—as well as formats such as 35mm, 120, 4x5 large format, 110, and 126.

Selected works will be exhibited as part of the 20/20 Photo Festival for the month of September at Cherry Street Pier, and featured at the festival’s photo book fair on September 12, 2026.
