Snap Shot is an annual, open photographic competition for teenagers (13yrs – 19yrs), produced and presented by Penrith Regional Gallery & The Lewers Bequest. Entry is FREE and there is prize money on offer allowing teenagers the opportunity to become cultural producers rather than simply consumers. Are you a teenager? Then enter now for an opportunity to be a part of this exciting exhibition.

This is the fifth year the Gallery has presented Snap Shot – Teenagers Photographic Prize and this year all entries will be uploaded via the Gallery website. Teenagers are invited to respond to the theme Snap Shot, and asked to capture fun, freaky, festive, or feisty moments from their lives. By participating in Snap Shot, teenagers are given a unique opportunity to express their perspectives on life in an exclusively teenage exhibition.

A prize pool of $1200 will be split across Winner, Highly Commended and four Commended photographs in two age brackets 13 -15 and 16 -19 years. Teenagers will be asked to present either one A3 photograph or two A4 photographs. (Digital manipulation of photographs is acceptable but not essential.) Participation in the Prize is FREE.
