JETAA Wellington’s annual Japan Photo Contest is back for another year! The contest is open to any amateur photographers who have been to Japan.
Since 2014, we have organised a community photo contest for people to show off their best photos of Japan. The best entries are displayed in the Japan Information & Cultural Centre (JICC) , and voted on by the public. At the end, we host a small awards ceremony with food and drinks to announce the winners and present prizes.
You can check out last year’s finalists here.
