Photography Contest Takes Place of Postponed Festival

SPARK Photo Festival has teamed up with Sparkplug Coffee and PhotoED Magazine for a new Canada-wide photography competition announced on Friday.

The contest calls for the best, most captivating, unique Coffee-at-Home images for the “Focus on Coffee” competition.

“We're looking for images that catch our attention, tell us your story about your at-home coffee experiences and nourish us like the first coffee of the day, “ said Jennifer MacKenzie, Festival Director. “We want to stay home and stay inspired creatively — together in 2021.”

First place will earn a year of Sparkplug Coffee and a year’s subscription to PhotoED Magazine.

The winning image will be featured on the packaging of a special edition Sparkplug X SPARK Photo Festival 2021 Coffee and the image will be exhibited at the 2021 SPARK Photo Festival.

The event was created after the festival was postponed to September by the SPARK Photo Festival Board of Directors.

“In the current pandemic environment, the health and safety of our community’s citizens, our photographers and those working at our venues, are the most important considerations at this time,” said MacKenzie.

Submission is free and open to Canadian residents except for Quebec. Photographers of any level are welcome and encouraged to submit before March 21 at 11:59 p.m. EDT.
