An opportunity for photographers!

Baltimore photographers, we want to see YOUR work! 📸

We're now accepting submissions for the Flashback Open Call, a rotating presentation celebrating diverse photographic perspectives on life here in Baltimore. We’re looking for work that captures the complexity, beauty, and lived experience of the city—particularly from photographers who haven't had extensive professional exhibition opportunities.

Up to 20 selected photographers will have their work displayed at the Museum and BMA Lexington Market alongside the upcoming exhibition Flashback: Two Centuries of Baltimore Photography.

✨ Learn more and submit your application by July 26 at artb.ma/4wWa0ht.
