Shutterbug Showdown: Entries Accepted

The Zelienople Area Public Library (ZAPL) is celebrating the photographer in each of us with the return of the Shutterbug Showdown!  ZAPL invites any library card holder to submit their original photographs. Don’t have a library card…plan a visit to our library and get one (it’s free)!

The opening reception will be on Wednesday, May 7, 2025, at 6 pm.

There is a $10 participation fee, which will be used to award cash prizes to the winners.  Each fee includes up to TWO (2) photo entries.  

Applications, photographs and entry fee must be received by 6 pm on April 30, 2025.  A maximum of two (2) photos per entry fee.  Each photo submitted must be 8”x10” size mounted on foam board no larger than 11”x14” with your name and photo title on the back.  Please use double-sided tape to mount your photos.  Submitted photos should be original and previously unpublished in a commercial endeavor.  Submissions may be included on our website, Facebook page and/or other electronic and print communications.
