Focus on the Boro, a communitywide photography contest created to inspire the community to get out and take pictures, experience a fun and friendly competition, and have the opportunity to exhibit and enjoy photography, will accept images for its 2019 competition through May 3.

The competition is open to photographers of all ages, styles and experience levels who live in Rutherford County.

Each photographer may submit up to three images. The categories include people, landscape, still life, animals, flora, architecture, sports/action, abstract/special effects and Murfreesboro, and there will be separate awards for youth (ages 17 and younger) and adults.

Submit images at culturalartsmurfreesboro.submittable.com.

After the submission period closes, judges will select images to be part of a Focus on the Boro display shown in the Murfreesboro City Hall Rotunda from June 3 to July 5.

All exhibits in the Rotunda Gallery (111 W. Vine St.) are free and open to the public.

Results of the final judging will be announced at a community reception on Friday, June 14.
