Community Photo Exhibition Call for submissions
Community Photo Exhibition Call for submissions
The Richard and Carole Cocks Art Museum (RCCAM), Miami University Art Center, and the Oxford Community Arts Center (OCAC) invite you to share your story through photography. This exhibition, presented alongside RCCAM’s upcoming Culture Crops: Ohio's Secret Gardens and Hidden Food Histories exhibition, explores the powerful, universal connection between people and their food. There will be a photo mural at RCCAM featuring images, and a photo exhibition at OCAC in May 2026.
From planting to sharing a meal, food is an exchange of culture, tradition, and personal stories that unites us.
We are grateful for a grant from the Greater Oxford Community Foundation to help make this happen.
