Photo Finish 2026 Exhibition Submission Information
The National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame is now accepting submissions for the 2026 Photo Finish. Professional as well as amateur photographers are encouraged to submit up to two entries. Each submission must relate to the sport of thoroughbred racing in America, including, but not limited to, racing and training scenes, the backstretch, life on the farm, and the emotions of the fans. We encourage creative and unique perspectives. A panel of judges representing the racing and arts communities will select the photographs for exhibition at the Museum, which will open in the von Stade Gallery on Oct. 28. Additional entries may be considered for inclusion in the online exhibition at the jurors' discretion.
