Enter the Silver is Gold Community Photographic Competition

The Silver is Gold Community Photographic Competition is a community-wide competition that serves to promote creative photographic expression. The competition is free to enter and is open to all residents of the ACT, regardless of their age, photographic experience or ability.

We are seeking photographic images that feature an older person or persons, aged 55 years or older, as the subject of your photographic image or images that are entered in the competition.

Your themes might include your subject in a portrait pose, perhaps participating or enjoying social, recreational or fitness activities, enjoying intergenerational moments or activities with children or grandchildren or perhaps capturing an image of a mature age worker or volunteer in our community.
