The Griffin Museum is proud to support emerging, mid-career and professional talents in the field of photography. We support visual artists with dynamic and creative ideas that challenge and progress the art form forward to new heights in vision and technology. Our support of photography is broad, from Fine Art to Documentary and Photojournalism, from digital to film-based works and cameraless images. The Richards Family Prize is a scholarship support mid-career photographers producing work that is creative and original. This $4,000 scholarship, catalog and exhibition is open to professional and mid-career photographers worldwide. We define “professional” as any photographer who earns the majority of their income from photography. We define “mid-career” as any photographer with some visibility in exhibitions, gallery representation and scholarship and residency success in their photography career.
