Booksmart Studio in collaboration with Float Photo are launching a new photographic publication and FREE call for entry for the printed publication  Homecoming 2021, sponsored by FUJIFILM, dedicated to graduating photography students from around the world, all current senior BFA students, current second-year MFA students, and all graduates of the class of 2020 are eligible to submit and participate. (We are including the previous year as an exception, as graduates of 2020 were cheated out of so many things.

Homecoming 2021 will be a collection of a minimum of 100 artists working with photography or lens-based media, forming a collection of young, emerging talent that is this year's pool of creative minds that are on their first steps out of school in the U.S and internationally. This photo publication will then be distributed to curators, editors, and other such established members of the photo community, as a book of discovery, putting a spotlight on fresh talent that they might have yet to crossed paths with, bridging the gap and exposing new artists to a vast potential of opportunities.

Location

Selected students will have their work exhibited at JKC Gallery at Mercer County Community College, Trenton New Jersey, in a large group exhibition, having their work printed and mounted by FujiFilm at no cost to the selected students.
