Musuems Global Call for Photographers

The Museum is Artist Invitation Only

(For now, with exceptions.)

Photographers are selected and invited by the Museum. The Museum maintains curatorial discretion over all selections and presentations.

Exceptions / Recommendations

Because the Museum is curator-led and invitation-based, we may not have direct awareness of all photographers whose work meets our standards.

If you would like to bring a photographer to our attention, you may submit them or yourself for review. Submissions are reviewed solely for potential invitation into the Museum’s curated collection.

We are seeking photography that demonstrates vision, technical mastery, and originality. Selected photographers will be included in our curated online collection, presented to a global audience.

Things to Know

Please review all guidelines carefully to ensure that any recommended artists align with the Museum’s curatorial standards for consideration. The Museum is a program of The Assembly of Natural Awakening, advancing goals of fostering connection through the art of photography.

Displaying in Our Museum

Selected photographers are included in the Museum as part of its curated digital collection.

Participation includes the creation of a dedicated artist page within the Museum, featuring selected works and supporting information provided by the artist. This page is maintained and updated as part of the Museum’s ongoing programming.

Photographers are presented within curated exhibitions accessible to a global audience through the Museum’s online platform.

All participating photographers receive a complimentary museum membership for the duration of their participation.

Your work will be displayed in a respected, curated online museum, providing lasting visibility without the pressure of time-limited exhibitions.

Showcase your unique style and vision. We celebrate diverse photography styles, from traditional to experimental, ensuring that your work is truly your own. We do not place any weight on your subject matter.

How to Apply

  1. Email your request for an artist to be considered to us. Include a brief description of the artist’s work.  You must include website links for review.

Once your submission is received, we’ll review the work. If selected, a contact will be made for the next steps to display the artist’s pieces in the online museum.

Before submitting the work, we kindly ask that you take a moment to thoroughly review and grasp the qualifications outlined.  The Museum is reserved for the best photographers in the world.

While we wish we could showcase every talented photographer, this invitation is reserved for those truly exceptional artists whose skills and vision set them apart.
