We’re so happy to share our exciting collaboration with @mementofilmlab and Bryan Brock as a guest curator for our final gallery of 2024!
Theme: Fall in the City
“Fall is a season of transitions. We leave behind the long, warm days of summer as we slow down and prepare for the freezing winter ahead. We shift from exploring and traveling to gathering for the holiday season, practicing gratitude for the past year, and readying ourselves for what’s to come. Still, we hold on to the last warm days, the falling leaves, and the golden sunsets.”
Prompts: Golden forest trails, apple picking and pumpkin patches, Halloween, morning fog, golden hour, professional sports, Nuit Blanche, farmer’s markets.

- Entries go on sale: Saturday, September 21 at noon.

How to Participate:
* A link to purchase an entry will be posted to socials and this page on september 21st at noon.
* To ensure we can display everyone’s work, participation is limited to 40 people. Each participant will have one photo displayed.
* There is an entry fee of $35, which includes one roll of either 35mm/120 Ektachrome or a 120 roll of Velvia 100, plus development, scanning, and an 8x12 print for the show. We will project 35mm slides at the opening.
* The purchase button is at the bottom of this page. After purchase you can pick up your roll @ Memento film labs.
* Photos must be taken this year on slide film.
* Participants will submit three photos, and one will be selected by our curators.
* Photos must have a 3:2 aspect ratio (portrait or landscape). This is the aspect ratio of 35mm film, but photos can be taken on any format and cropped to fit. This ensures your submission fits an 8x12" frame (provided by Memento).
* Framed prints will be displayed @ Memento Film Lab
Selling Your Framed Print:
If your work is selected, you can choose to have Memento sell the framed print of your photo. Memento will charge a 30% commission fee plus the frame cost ($45). The sale price will be determined by your print cost (your decision) plus the frame cost. We’re happy to help if you need assistance pricing your print—feel free to reach out.
