PhotoIreland FUTURES Talents 2027

Days left5w leftNovember 27, 2026

All Information

PhotoIreland's FUTURES Talents call supports contemporary photographers and lens-based artists by connecting selected practitioners with an international photography network. Selected artists receive a €500 participation fee, professional conversations and development opportunities, travel and accommodation for the platform's annual event, and promotion through FUTURES' online and publication channels. Participants may also apply for additional opportunities, including mentorship and exhibition projects. This opportunity is not open worldwide: the 2027 call is for artists based in Ireland or the United Kingdom, as well as Irish and UK artists practising abroad. It is therefore suitable only for applicants who meet that geographic or nationality-related eligibility requirement.
