You’re doing so many great things across the world and it would be lovely for all those special moments to be captured…
That’s why we’re starting the Serve the City Photo Contest! 📸
Each month, starting in March, Serve the City International invites all our chapters to a photo contest. You are allowed to submit up to five photos per month that correlate with the month’s theme. From all the photos received, a panel of judges will choose, after careful selection, the top three photos each month, and publish them on our social media channels.🌟
The theme for March is… Better Together!🙌
The criteria will be that the photo…
☑️…follows well with the monthly theme
☑️…is artistically pleasing
☑️…evokes feeling
☑️…has good composition
Some of goals for this contest is to:
🎯Highlight our cities of which many might not normally be known to our other cities.
🎯Publish some of the top winners in a coffee table book to be published for the 2025 STCI International forum celebrating 25 years.
🎯Use for social media and marketing purposes in order to inspire new chapters around the world.
Rules:
👉Make sure everyone in the photo is aware that their picture may be published.
👉Each picture should be captioned and credit given to the photographer
👉Each city can send up to – and no more than five photos.
👉Your photos must be received by the International Team (comms@servethecity.net) by the end of the month to count for that month.
