Photo Contest
Each year, CHRS seeks out your best shots of Capitol Hill – from its antique homes to great parks and everything in between. The deadline for submissions is March 1, 2026.
Anyone can participate in the contest as long as the photos were taken in the neighborhood. The 2025 judges were Frank Thorp, NBC News photographer; Amy Moore, executive director of Capitol Hill Arts Workshop; Austin Graff, digital marketer/photography enthusiast; and Jenny Nordstrom, owner of Jenny Nordstrom Photography, the cover artist for the 2025 House & Garden Tour catalog.
Winning photographs will be displayed in the windows of the Coldwell Banker Realty office at 350 7th St. SE near Eastern Market. CHRS will hold a reception for the juried exhibit in April.
Pictures posted here are previous entries.
In addition to having their photo displayed, the first-place winner will receive free tickets to the society’s May House and Garden Tour. Honorable mentions will receive a free year’s membership to CHRS
Gary Mintz - 1st place - "Wednesday Night at Mr. Henry's"
