Council Chair launches annual photo competition for 2024

Published date

The Chair of the Council is launching his annual photo competition and is encouraging local photography buffs to get involved in showcasing the best of Harlow.

Whether it be our green open spaces, world-famous collection of sculptures or our fantastic community, anything that you consider to be the very best of Harlow, take a picture of it and send it in.

The competition runs from now until Friday 1 November, with the best photos going on display in the Gibberd Gallery from 12 December until 1 January 2025.

If your photo is shortlisted, you’ll be invited to the opening event at the gallery from 5.30pm on 12 December where the winners will be announced!

Photos can be digital or physical, old or new. You can email digital photos to us at chair@harlow.gov.uk, or bring physical copies into the Civic Centre if you wish.
