FREE ENTRY / The Sténopé Association - Call for Entries

This call is open for the selection and preparation of the 9th edition of the Les Sténopédies festival , which will take place from October 4 to 25, 2025.

The Sténopé association organizes this event in odd-numbered years, alternating with the Nicéphore + biennial, thus enriching and complementing its actions in support of photography. 

The Sténopédies are specifically intended for authors/creators from the greater AURA region and, by extension, photographers residing in France. They aim to promote photography in the diversity of its approaches and the subjects tackled by contemporary photographers. To this end, no work theme is imposed for applications.

This call is therefore open to all photographers, amateurs or professionals, residing in France and not having exhibited at a previous edition.

The exhibitions will be presented in different locations in the city of Clermont-Ferrand.
