On the adequate completion of the mentorship, the body of work will be exhibited as a solo exhibition at the Photo Workshop Gallery. The recipient also has the opportunity to work closely with a suitable mentor, who will provide guidance and direction on the intended project.

Thandile Zwelibanzi, the recipient of 2010/2011 award, has produced a body of work entitled 'Still Existence' which opens at The Photo Workshop Gallery on 3 August 2011. Some of the work has also been selected for the 2011 Bamako Encounters Photography Biennale and will be shown in Mali in October this year.

Applications, which close for entry on Friday 29 July 2011 at 4pm, will reviewed by a panel of judges, appointed by the Market Photo Workshop.

A voluntary briefing session will be held at the Market Photo Workshop on Wednesday 6 July 2011 at 13h00. This briefing will cover the application, and proposal writing process. All applications must be submitted by email to az.oc.pohskrowotohptekram@momelom and copied to az.oc.pohskrowotohptekram@vyecats.
