2024 Once in Japan Photo Contest

Our annual photo contest is BACK, with a theme of People-to-People EXCHANGE & CONNECTION with Japan!

And for the first time ever, we are now featuring a Youth Category for photographers aged 12-17!

What do EXCHANGE & JAPAN mean to you?

Show us in your photos, whether sister city activities, studying abroad, a special meal, or your favorite interactions on a recent trip.

Share your Japan-related memories shot in Japan or California/Nevada to win great prizes from Canon U.S.A., Inc.

The deadline for this contest is Sunday, December 1, 2024.
