Announcing the 2025 Pop-Up Call for Entry
Show Your work! Send us your idea for your spot on the 2025 Pop-Up Tour at SlowExposures!
Deadline for entering has been EXTENDED!! Submit your entry by Sunday, July 20th by midnight.
We are pleased to welcome the return of Nashville’s Jerry Atnip as our 2025 PopUp Juror. He is celebrated for his photography, his enthusiastic support for up-and-coming and established photographers, and his long-time support for SlowExposures.
The PopUp Tour will be open for visitors from Friday to Sunday afternoon (September 19th-21st). It’s the signature Saturday afternoon event, culminating in the PopUp Raffle at the Saturday Night Supper that evening.
Think outside the box–many successful shows can be mounted without expensive, fancy trappings–it’s up to you to make your show memorable. We encourage sales–and, we’re waiving our SlowE commission. Each participant will be asked to donate a print of their choice for the PopUp Raffle to support the event.
What is a Pop-Up Tour?
The Pop-Up Tour is one of the premier events during SlowExposures weekend in Pike County, Georgia. Six to eight exhibits – solo or group – will be staged in nontraditional venues in-and-around the Courthouse Square in Zebulon. Show-goers will collect a unique stamp in their Pop-Up Passport at each show to exchange for tickets to participate in our Pop-Up Raffle at the Saturday Supper.
The Juror selects about 5 photographers or photographer groups for the Show and curates the exhibits alongside the selected exhibitors, offering enthusiastic and in-depth expertise throughout the process.
The Pop-Up Tour is open for visitors from Friday to Sunday afternoon. It’s the signature Saturday afternoon event, culminating in the Pop-Up Raffle* at the Saturday Night Supper that evening.
*Each participant will be asked to donate one print for the Pop-Up Raffle.
