We are sorry but due to Covid-19 the Wilmington International Exhibition of Photography has been postponed until further notice.

The 88th Wilmington International Exhibition of Photography (WIEP) was a wonderful success thanks to the contributions of over 20 volunteers from the Delaware Photographic Society, who worked tirelessly to ensure that all of our operations ran smoothly. I am indebted to each and every one of you who helped to execute this exceptional photography endeavor.

As with many other endeavors this past year, our normal process of welcoming both prints and projected images was interrupted by the international COVID-19 pandemic. As such we were not able to accept prints for the first time in the long history of WIEP. So, we decided to hold a projected image only competition for this year, and, hopefully, we will return to welcoming both prints and projected images next year. This year we received over 2,580 projected images from 32 countries around the world.

Another part of WIEP that was disrupted this year was the in-person exhibition which we have held at the University of Delaware Wilmington campus for the past several years. We are looking forward to returning there for our print exhibition as soon as possible. So, for this year, we are proud to present a professional audio-visual presentation of the best projected images, which is included on a DVD with our exhibition catalog.

The entire WIEP team is grateful to our distinguished judges, who traveled virtually from Australia, Belgium, Denmark, Hong Kong, India, Nova Scotia and all over the United States to be with us to judge over 2,580 images during our week-long online judging. Their thoughtful deliberations resulted in the selection of some outstanding images for awards and acceptances in our 88th Exhibition. We awarded 77 medals and 89 honorable mention ribbons this year.

I would also like to thank the PSA Mid-Atlantic Chapter, and the Delaware Valley Council of Camera Clubs (DVCCC) for the donation of medals. Thanks also to our commercial sponsors, our patrons and the Delaware Division of the Arts for supporting the Exhibition financially, and to Pettinaro Residential for their generous support of our activities.
