A new URBAN prize is designed to nurture young talent and foster their creative spirit in an international environment: we are thrilled to partner again with the School of Creative Photography<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0in Krakow, Poland. This collaboration brings a remarkable opportunity for the best-ranked photographers in the Under 35<\/strong> section of URBAN, known as URBAN Photo Arena<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n The top-ranked<\/strong> photographer in the Arena will win a six-month scholarship <\/strong>to attend the Creative Photography School! The course is valued at 1.600 \u20ac<\/strong> and classes taught in English<\/strong>. If the first-ranked winner is unable to attend the semester, the prize will be offered to the next highest-ranked photographers, in descending order.<\/p>\n URBAN Photo Arena is a unique tournament-style<\/strong> contest where Under 35<\/strong> photographers from around the globe battle for the podium! Only one free-themed<\/strong> photo can be submitted by each photographer by June 16th. Each week, photos compete head-to-head, with photographers voting to advance the best images. From the Semifinals, the Top 3 URBAN Jurors<\/strong> judge the matches live<\/strong> at the Trieste Photo Days festival<\/strong><\/a>. The URBAN Photo Arena project was realized with the support and contribution of the Pietro Pittini Foundation<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n How to submit your shot:<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/i> ARENA RULES AND PRIZES<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\n <\/div><\/div> <\/i> SUBMIT NOW<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\n <\/div><\/div><\/div>\n The founder<\/strong><\/a> of the Cracow School of Art and Fashion Design<\/em><\/strong> and the School of Creative Photography (SKF)<\/em> <\/strong>is an experienced photographer and passionate educator specializing in nude photography and gum printing.
