Enter the Downtown Days Photography Contest by Oct 1

From Mike Watson

The Downtown Days Photography Contest is back for 2026, for any original photographs taken in Columbia and Adair County. The subject matter is up to the photographers. The contest is once again hosted by the Adair County Public Library's Genealogy & History Research Center.

Entry Requirements:
  • Entries must be printed in an 8 x 10 inch format--portrait or landscape.
  • Both color and black & white are welcome.
  • Three photos by an entrant are the limit due to space for display.
  • Each entry must have the printed name of the entrant, contact phone number.
Entries must be turned in to the Research Center by 5pmCT on Thursday, October 1, 2026, to be displayed. An independent judging team of three will select the first, second and third place winners, and the public is encouraged to come by and view all the entries. Each person may then vote for their favorite, to select the Public Favorite winner.

Photographs will be displayed at the Research Center during operating hours--9amCT to 5pmCT each day, Monday through Friday, from Friday, October 2, 2026, through Tuesday, October 13, 2026. Results of the contest will be announced before/between Downtown Days concert performances on the evening of Saturday, October 10, 2026.
