We invite lens-based artists, 18 and older, to submit work for Gathering Place | A Family Album, an exhibition exploring the rituals, warmth, and complexities of coming together. From holiday dinners and everyday meals to quiet corners and inherited objects, we welcome photographs that reflect how we gather, remember, and connect.
This exhibition will be presented at our satellite Griffin @ the Jenks Center in Winchester, MA, October 1 — January 3, 2025. We look for photographs that celebrate the intimate spaces and shared traditions that define family—chosen or inherited—through still-lifes, portraits, domestic scenes, or elsewhere.
Share your vision of Gathering Place and join us in celebrating the merriment of coming together.
