Entries for the non-juried 2026 Events Program are open until Friday, March 6, at 5 pm PST. Event proposals are not subject to jury evaluation, but they must meet the Festival’s basic criteria of being lens-related to be included in the festival programming.

Capture’s vision is to connect Vancouver to the world through lens-based art. The Festival acts as a platform to expand visual literacy through lens-based art; strives to give voice to traditionally underrepresented communities and to present compelling, urgent lens-based art.
We look forward to receiving your photography and lens-based submissions for April 2026!
