Submissions Now Open for ASAP! Celebration of Young Photographers!

Students in grades 6–12 are invited to submit up to two photographs to ASAP!’s annual Celebration of Young Photographers (CYP). A panel of professional judges will select 60 photographs to be featured in a one-day gallery exhibition on Sunday, November 1, 2026, from 2:00–3:30 p.m. at Hartford Art School.

This year’s CYP theme is Traditions. Photographers are encouraged to explore the ways traditions are passed down, evolve over time, and appear in the world around us. Whether rooted in family, culture, community, or everyday life, traditions connect us as human beings and can inspire us to create, reflect, and connect with one another.

Submissions are free and must be entered by September 25, 2026. For submission guidelines and to enter, visit asapct.org/celebration-of-young-photographers.
