Announcing Photo & Fine Art Contest: Capture “The Beauty of Listening”

ListenersUnite.com is holding a contest to create the 12 months of its upcoming 2008 Listeners Unite! “Beauty of Listening” calendar. Entry is free and both amateur and professional photographers and fine artists are encouraged to enter. Creativity is the key, as “listening” doesn’t easily conjure a concrete image. Entrants are encouraged to explore what “The Beauty of Listening” means to them and find where they see it in the world. Photographers may see it images of connection or solitude. Fine artists may express in any medium, any style, but must submit photograph the finished work to submit as a jpg.

Twelve winners will be featured on the high-quality 2008 “Beauty of Listening” Calendar and one first prize winner will be featured on the cover and receive special attention on the Listeners Unite! website. All entrants should be sure to read the rules and requirements and to use our model release for photographs involving recognizable people (more details available on the site).

ListenersUnite.com was created to honor the importance of listening, collect and share listening quotes, and to share news and information through the site’s “Have you heard…?” blog. The blog and weekly quote are regularly updated by the site author, Linda Eve Diamond (http://LindaEveDiamond.com), who also includes on the site her thoughts about listening as a foundation of peace—inner, interpersonal, and international.

Deadline: July 30, 2007
