Every year we host our signature exhibition Size Matters, opening the Saturday during the annual Medium Festival. Size Matters celebrates photo based artwork smaller than 10”.
Previous exhibitions have included 35mm contact prints to multi-media digital work, sculptural works, camera-less images, and exquisite 8”x10” contact prints. No matter what kind of camera you use (or if you don’t use a camera) Size Matters is the premier photography exhibition celebrating small works.
Exhibition runs October 19 – November 9, 2019
Exhibition Juror
We’re proud to have Kai Caemmerer from the SFO Museum as the 2019 Size Matters exhibition juror. Kai will consider all photographic media for the exhibition, selecting one artist being to receive the Size Matters purchase prize ($500). That work will be purchased and donated to a prominent museum collection. Previous purchase awards were donated to the Center for Creative Photography, Museum of Photographic Arts, and the San Diego Museum of Art.
Exhibition Awards
We offer six awards based on work in the final exhibition.
- the Purchase Award ($500) selected by our exhibition juror
- the Director’s Choice Award ($250)

The Purchase Award will be paid directly to the artist by Medium, who then donates it to a prominent museum collection. Awards will be selected during the opening reception on Saturday, October 19.
