Photography Competition
A happy game in kindergarten, a nature excursion with a teacher, group learning and creative afternoons – for many of us, these childhood memories are deeply rooted.
Friedrich Froebel is considered to be the founder of kindergarten. His ideas concerning childhood, education and upbringing, which revolutionized early childhood learning in his time, remain highly relevant today. His work is recognized worldwide and his influence on early childhood education has impacted many other disciplines, such as art and architecture. However, despite all this, awareness of Froebel and his importance in Germany appear to be dwindling. We want to change this!
JURY
An expert jury made up of Fröbel experts and keen photographers has been assembled to judge the pictures and name the winners. The jury includes representatives from the following institutions, associations and projects:
Friedrich Fröbel Museum, Bad Blankenburg
Fröbelverein Oberweißbach e.V.
Fotoprojekt photogenX, Hawaii
Gesellschaft für Fotografie e.V., Landesverband Thüringen
