Scotiabank Photography Award

The Scotiabank Photography Award is a CA$50,000 (equivalent to $54,294 in 2021) annual Canadian photography award.[1] Two runners-up each receive CA$10,000 (equivalent to $10,859 in 2021). In addition to the cash prize, the prize consists of a solo-exhibition of their work and the publication of a book about the work. It is intended to support a Canadian mid-to-late career lens-based artists, aiming to take that career to a higher level of national and international recognition.[2] The award was co-founded in 2010 by Canadian photographer Edward Burtynsky and Jane Nokes. The longlist is announced in January and the short list is announced in March. The winner is announced in early May during the Scotiabank Contact Photography Festival.[3]
