Reclaiming the Rainbow Photo Challenge

Free

Take part in a new photo challenge this summer, organised by Andro and Eve.

Reclaiming the Rainbow Photo Challenge is a way to raise awareness of the Pride flag as a symbol of safety, build connections, and celebrate the strength of the South Yorkshire LGBTQ+ community through this difficult time.

If you're LGBTQ+ identified and living in South Yorkshire, then get involved with Andro and Eve's photo challenge! To enter all you need to do is to take a photo on your phone or camera.

The photo should be:

  • – Inspired by the phrase ‘Reclaiming the Rainbow’ and
  • – Show either yourself or another LGBTQ+ community member in a location in South Yorkshire.

Entries close at midnight on Sunday 1st August.

The photo challenge entries will be judged by South Yorkshire creatives Nelly Naylor, Yuen Fong Ling, and Zoyander Street.

The winner will receive a bumper pack of goodies from local independents including Vulgar Vintage, Showroom Cinema, Birdhouse Tea, Beer Central, Truffle Pig Vegan and Artisan and Eco. There’ll also be prizes for runners up from Moss and Clover florists and treats by Elly Joy.

Winners announced in early August.
