The Project

Where ever you go, there you are.” Jon Kabat-Zinn
This project is about capturing the amazing depth and richness of culture we have at NAU and in Flagstaff. Around the world we find unique and wonderful culture. Some is different from our own, some is the same, and it is the difference and similarities that make life amazing.
What is culture and where is it found? How do you see culture? Where and how do cultures meet and blend here at NAU and in Flagstaff? These are the questions that should guide your photos.

Requirements

The deadline for submitting your photos is Thursday, March 28, 2013 at 12pm. Any photos submitted after this deadline will not be displayed and will not be considered for an award. If you submit a photo of anything that is deemed inappropriate for the contest, it will not be displayed and will not be considered for an award. The CIE reserves the right to remove your photo from the contest at any time without prior notice.

If you are using digital photography please email your selected photo to Jacob.Eavis@nau.edu. If you wish to print your own photo please make sure it is an 8”x10” photo and drop it off at the Center for International Education, attention Jacob Eavis. If you are using film photography you are welcome to handle the development yourself, again make sure it is an 8”x10” photo. We are able to print photos but need to have enough time to process them and prepare them for display so please try to get your photo submitted as soon as possible.

The Award

The CIE will be giving a scholarship award worth $150 to the winner of the Crossroad of Culture juried photo contest. The winner will be announced at the Opening Reception on April 2, 2013. Please note that if you have any outstanding charges on your student account at the time you receive the award, the award money will automatically be applied to those charges. If you do not have a charge on your account, the award will stay on your account until you apply it to your tuition, housing or other charges.
