The 2016 Exposed DC Winning Photographs!

January 13, 2016 By exposeddc

Has it really been a decade? And they said it wouldn’t last! Ok, maybe no one actually said that. Regardless, this year we celebrate the 10th annual Exposed DC Photography Show at the historic Carnegie Library at Mount Vernon Square, home of our gracious hosts, the Historical Society of Washington, D.C.

Remember this? (Remember when we only knew you by your Flickr names?) When we started this photo contest and exhibit over at DCist in 2006, we had no idea we’d be doing it 10 years later, but seeing the way the already vibrant photography community has continued to grow over the years has been our biggest pleasure. We look forward to celebrating our anniversary in March with folks who’ve been around with us since the beginning and all the new faces that have joined us in the meantime.

Mark your calendars now for Thursday, March 10, when we’ll host the grand opening reception of this special 10th anniversary exhibit. Meanwhile tonight, January 13, join us upstairs at Jack Rose in Adams Morgan from 6 to 8 p.m. for our monthly happy hour to hang out with fellow photographers and fans, and on this occasion, to toast to the 47 winning photographs of the 2016 contest. Cheers!!

January 13, 2015 By Heather Goss

This year we celebrate our 9th annual Exposed DC Photography Show. We’ve worked hard every year to bring you the best photography that, as seen together, tells the story of living in the Washington, D.C. area. From our early days at Warehouse (RIP) to today, as we prepare to exhibit our 2015 winning images at the new Capital Fringe headquarters, we’ve been proud to feature local photographers of all levels, hobbyist to professional, who are able to see the nation’s capital as more than just a collection of monuments.

Mark your calendars for March 12, when we’ll open our 9th annual exhibit with our usual blowout bash. But tonight, January 13, join us at Meridian Pint in Columbia Heights from 6 to 8 p.m. for our monthly happy hour, to mingle and meet your fellow photographers, and this time, to toast to the following 42 winners of the 2015 contest. Congratulations!
