The New Delta Review Literary Journal is currently accepting entries for its annual Ryan R. Gibbs Photography Contest. The juror of this year’s contest is New York City based artist Elliott Jerome Brown Jr. The winner will be featured in the 2019-2020 edition of the New Delta Review, which is published annually by Louisiana State University Creative Writing graduate students. An honorarium of $400 is awarded to the winner and a runner-up will be selected. There is a $5 fee to enter.
For the contest, New Delta Review seeks a series of 5-11 photographs to be featured in Issue 10.1. Together, the photographs should tell a story, or be centered on a unified theme of the artist’s choosing.
