Please read rules & directions before submitting work below

Candela Gallery is excited to announce the open call for our Memory Orchards book.

We encourage you to submit up to seven images in your application. They can either be seven standalone works, or they can inform one another as part of a series. This is really up to your own preference, and what you think works best with your seven open slots. 

 The Breakdown:

  1. Rolling submissions for Memory Orchards open November 1, 2022 through January 31, 2023.

  2. Please make sure any image files are formatted as JPG at 1000px on their longest side, and are no larger than 10MB in size.

  3. Please name all files using the following naming convention: LastName_TitleOfWork.jpg.

    • If the name of your piece is lengthy, please select a few distinct words from the title to identify your file
      (it should coincide with the information you provide in your form).

      • Ex: John Doe’s “Midnight in Paris Under the Waning Crescent” could look something like “Doe_MidnightInParis.jpg”
