GRADES 6-12

Shared Serenity by Benji Critton, 12th grade. 2024 top selected photo.

ASAP!’s annual Celebration of Young Photographers invites students in grades 6-12 from across Connecticut to submit their photographs for a chance to participate in a juried art exhibition. A panel of professional photographers selects 60 photos for a public gallery show, recognizing the top four photos and their photographers for their outstanding and thoughtful work based on the yearly theme.

The 14th Annual Celebration of Young Photographers’ theme was ‘Grace.’ See below for 2024 award recipients.
