Only PSA members can apply their exhibition acceptances toward Star Ratings, and only acceptances received in exhibitions listed in the PSA Journal are valid. Stars-colored metal tabs that can be attached to your PSA membership button-are awarded when you have a certain number of acceptances, with each division having its own requirements. For these requirements and other information, write to the appropriate Star Ratings director-names are listed by division under "Services for Individuals" in the quarterly "Services & Activities" section. Star Ratings listings are also published quarterly in the PSA Journal.

Every May the PSA Journal publishes "Who's Who," a listing of all exhibitors who have met of exceeded individual division acceptance requirements during the previous year.

PSA Recommendation

PSA encourages sponsors of international exhibitions to select the most qualified individuals for judges. The Society does not establish criteria for choosing judges, nor does it impose rules or standards regarding the quality or aesthetics of the photographs selected.

How to Have Your Exhibition Listed

If you'd like to have your exhibition listed on these pages, contact the exhibition standards director for each division that will be a pad of your exhibition. The exhibition standards directors, who are listed under the division headings, recognize individual exhibitions and provide these listings.

Notice to Exhibitions

All exhibitions, including those in circuits, that are recognized for listing in the PSA Journal, and whose acceptances thereby become eligible for star ratings and Who's Who, will be expected to pay the fee of $15 per section to the appropriate division.

Sponsors who qualify to award PSA medals (those who have run an exemplary exhibition a previous year) will be given a Best of Show gold medal for each section at no extra charge, and may purchase a second medal for the same section(s) if the division authorizes one. Exhibitions that are recognized, but do not qualify to award the medals, will be listed in the PSA Journal upon payment of the fee. The amount has not changed, although in the past if was treated as an optional medal purchase rather than a required listing fee. This was passed by vote of the Executive Committee of PSA on April 24, 1999, to ensure that all exhibitions share equally in the costs of granting divisional recognition.
