Call for entries - Young Digital Documentary Photography Open
‘This is me’ is the theme for our Young Digital Documentary Photography Open Exhibition, 2026
Young Digital Documentary Open 2026
Call for submissions: ‘This is me’
Our new Young Digital Documentary Open Exhibition asks young people aged 14–18 years to explore through documentary photography who they are now and how they relate to the world around them.
Photographs should reflect what the theme means to you. For the first time in the history of the Annual Documentary Open, we are also accepting composite photographs.
An exhibition featuring selected entries will run from May to July 2026 and will reflect who we are, and the roots and traditions that make us who we are.
Submissions to the Young Digital Open will be exhibited digitally in the exhibition and online.
