Developed Work 2027

Midwest Center for Photography’s national fellowship competition seeks a cohesive, thematically developed body of photographic work for an in-person exhibition in Wichita. One selected fellow receives a conditional $200 Developed Work Fellowship Award and one year of online representation. The source gives conflicting exhibition dates—March 5–21 and May 7–24, 2027—and conflicting application deadlines—December 31, 2026 and February 1—so no event dates or application deadline are normalized.

Cohesive, conceptually and thematically developed bodies of photographic work

Open only to U.S.-based photographers. Submit 5–14 images and a brief artist statement explaining the work’s intent; evaluation considers the body of work as a whole rather than only its strongest image. The entry fee is $50 for up to five images, and the source also lists a $30 framing charge. One winner receives the conditional $200 Developed Work Fellowship Award and one year of online representation. The source reports conflicting exhibition dates of March 5–21 and May 7–24, 2027, and conflicting deadline information of December 31, 2026 and February 1.
