We've just launched SHOOT NATIONS 2007, a free Global Youth Photography & Drawing Competition for 11-24 year olds.
Winning images will be showcased at the UNITED NATIONS international headquarters in New York, for International Youth Day on 12th August and the exhibition will travel to five other countries around the world - so this is an exciting chance for participants to become an internationally exhibited artists!
Judges will include professional photographers & cultural 'bigwigs' including Tate Modern, London. Prizes include a digital SLR camera worth £1,000 and more!
Working in association with Plan UK, our aim is to help promote the voice of young people around the world, and provide them with a genuine un-biased opportunity to be heard at global government level. T
he theme of the competition is GOVERNANCE (more 'youth friendly' information on the meaning on governance can be found at www.shootnations.org/main/governance) and we are keen to receive a broad range of submissions, particularly from Australasia, as we are aware that you have a strong youth movement, and would like it to be represented in the competition.
Both drawings and photographs are accepted. In an attempt to keep costs minimal for all, submissions must be made electronically, via our website. Drawings must be scanned or photographed, and submitted as a JPEG by Friday, 20th July 2007. Interested people can sign up at
www.shootnations.org/user/signup
We believe that this is a truly fantastic opportunity for young people in many ways, so please feel free to email Antonia if you have any questions: antonia@shootexperience.com
We look forward to hearing from you!
