About:
The Leica Society International is proud to announce its 8th Annual Photography Grant. The application period begins on August 1 and ends on September 14 (or sooner if the limit of 60 is reached first). The LSI Grant was established in 2017 to provide financial support for deserving photographers who are in the process of creating or completing a personal photographic project.
Grant Amount: The recipient will receive a grant in the amount of $7500. The grant award will also include a new Leica camera and lens courtesy of Leica Camera US. The recipient is responsible for any applicable taxes in their local jurisdiction. In addition to the grant, the recipient may also have the opportunity of showing their work in an exhibition in 2026.
Grant Theme: Through the Lens of Hope: LSI invites you to submit an in-progress, personal project demonstrating the theme “Through the Lens of Hope.” We are looking for projects/stories whose images express our innate ability to achieve greatness and positivity, determination and courage, and success and victory; the kinds of stories whose arc have the potential to inspire fellow human beings to act, to celebrate achievement, and to uplift all people.
