Here is a current online project accepting image submissions related to this time of introspection. It is poetic and reflective.
The Garden Collective is offering a potential internship with hopes to engage recent grads during this time.
Submit your creative book (Art Direction, Copywriting, Design, Photography, OR Design Strategy) at the link in the bio with a short write-up on why you’d make a great intern. We’ll select the top ten books in each category for an online portfolio review and offer a paid summer internship to whoever wows us on paper and in (virtual) person! Submissions open until May 18th.

CALL-FOR-SUBMISSIONS: KOLAB PROJECT X OCAD U: THE NEXT FOURTEEN DAYS
https://www.ocadu.ca/event/call-submissions-kolab-project-x-ocad-u-next-fourteen-days
OCAD U is excited to partner with Kolab Project to create an exclusive call for submissions from members of the OCAD U community. The Next Fourteen Days is a new initiative that will provide grants to realize 14 new projects, created by OCAD U students, recent alumni and also select faculty. These projects will document new work created over a period of 14 days in May 2020. Collectively and individually these works will speak to this time of physical distancing and self-isolation.
The Next Fourteen Days is an experiment in social connection. Using creative practice to bridge social distancing, this initiative has been developed in an effort to offer a reprieve from our collective isolation, to champion creativity and to support cultural production in these challenging times. The fourteen new works selected, along with the documentation of their making, will be featured online as short digital vignettes, with a goal of reaching as many people as possible.
Individual project grants of $1,000 each will be awarded by a jury made up of Kolab Project and OCAD U representatives. Recipients will be selected on the basis of a short project proposal, the strength of their portfolio of existing work and also a declaration of financial need. Proposals could potentially respond to themes such as connectedness, time, physical space or collaboration, but are not limited to these recommendations.
GRANT VALUE: Individual project grants of $1,000 each

Fall 2019 Berlin-Toronto Exchange Exhibition Opportunity
During the fall term, an exchange exhibition will take place between Photo students at OCADU and the University of Europe in Berlin. Student work from each school will be installed at the partner school, printed from selected digital files. OCADU Photo students in the 300 and 400 level are invited to submit up to 5 images from a series.
This exhibition is planned in coordination with the teaching exchange between Professors Peter Sramek of OCADU and Walter Bergmoser of the University of Europe, who will teach this fall at the opposite school. The OCAD works will be installed in Berlin by Peter Sramek and the UE Masters students.
For the OCADU students, there will not be a pre-determined theme, rather students are invited to submit work that represents a key conceptual direction in their own photographic output. Selection will be coordinated by Peter Sramek. Not all work will be included.
Files will be uploaded as a folder with the student’s name into the folder Exchange OCADU in Berlin:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1sASbXt6WQVVpmYCuKqnwiox5ruWVVHki?usp=sharing

Files which are too small will not be considered for printing.
