Teen Photo Contest: Finding Patterns

Inspired by the bold patterns and innovative textile designs featured in the Jewish Museum’s exhibition Modernity and Opulence: Women of the Wiener Werkstätte , middle and high school students are invited to submit original photographs that creatively explore the power of pattern. Patterns are found in nature, architecture, fashion, and everyday life, and this prompt is open to your unique artistic vision and interpretation. Students may submit up to three distinct photographs. All images and content must be the student’s own original work and free from copyright restrictions. AI generated photographs are not eligible for the contest . Winning photographs will be featured on the Jewish Museum’s social media platforms. Winners will also receive an American Express gift card. Please use this form to submit your photograph by December 14, 2026.
