Casa África chooses the festivities in Africa as the theme for the 6th edition of 'Africa Focus'

20/10/2015

Casa África announces the 6th 'Africa Focus' Photography Contest, which will reward the photographs which best make known the positive aspects of festivities and celebration in Africa, which is this year's theme.

The cultures of the continent offer countless opportunities to discover spectacular ways of celebrating events. With your help we want to advertise from the most traditional to the most contemporary festivities; those that take place inside a home, but also the continent's most popular cultural ones; the celebrations that are held in a big city or those that you found in the most remote place of the continent.

The invitation to submit photographs will be open from 15th October until 14th December 2015 at 10 a.m. (Spanish mainland time).

Each contestant can take part with a maximum of five (5) photographs. For this, you should send them by email to redes.sociales@casafrica.es. The photographs should be in JPEG or PNG format with an appropriate resolution and size of between 1.5MB and 4 MB. The participant's personal details should be included.

We value the creativity and innovation of the technique used and the way the message is transmitted. The photograph's description and title will also be valued under these criteria.

The jury will be made up from renowned professionals from the field of the arts. Its composition will be communicated once the decision is published and they will meet shortly after the reception period for the photographs ends. The jury's decision will be published on Casa África's website (http://www.casafrica.es) and on the social networks where Casa África is present.

Each image could obtain one of the following prizes:

  1. First prize: 600 €
  2. Second and third prize: 200€ each one
