MSPF 2020
Call for Entries
Due to the global pandemic, we will be unable to exhibit the MSPF Finalists in Miami this year. Instead we are hosting the event online and all the 2020 Finalists will be exhibited in Milan, Italy during Street Photo Milano 2021*,
the largest street photography festival in Europe..
MSPF gives photographers from all over the world the opportunity to be exhibited
in Miami and Milan, giving significant exposure and recognition of their work
to art critics, collectors, publishers and the art community in general.
