Black & White PLUS Photography Show in Dixon

Wed, Apr 01 – Sat, Apr 04, 2026 • 10:00am - 4:00pm View More Dates

113 W. First St., Dixon, IL 61021

A bold photography exhibition exploring black-and-white imagery with creative twists that add depth, texture, and surprise.

New in 2026! The Black & White PLUS Photography Show is a juried exhibition celebrating the strength and versatility of monochrome photography. This show invites photographers to explore imagery created without full color, focusing instead on composition, contrast, light, shadow, texture, and visual storytelling. This show is open exclusively to photography and is designed to give photographers a dedicated space to present their work without competing with other media.

Here’s the PLUS part: Eligible works include traditional black-and-white photography, sepia-toned photography, and cyanotype photography.

Opening reception is Friday, April 3, 6-8 p.m.
