ImageMakers is a national photography contest
for Club members ages 6-18. The year-round program
encourages members to learn and practice black-and-
white, color, digital, and alternative process photography.
The competition yields local, regional, and national
winners who compete in the categories of Culture and
Tradition, Portraits, Nature and Surroundings, Fashion
and Style, and Editing and Filter. The photographs are
displayed at local and regional exhibits around the world.
“As an organization, we are extremely proud of the
art our members produce and the local and national
recognition they receive. They are talented young artists
emerging from Palm Beach County, and their perspectives
and voice are significant,” said Cultural Arts Program
Manager Casandra Tanenbaum. “Our members deeply
appreciate the opportunity photography provides them to
share a glimpse of their community and unique, individual
aesthetic.”
