AKRON, Ohio - Mustard Seed Market & Cafe wants to celebrate the beauty and uniqueness of the Akron community through the lens of residents' cell phones.

The Mustard Seed will exhibit "Through Akron's Eyes," a community-focused photography show based on the best mobile-device shots of the city.

The selected photos will be showcased at both the Highland Square and Montrose Mustard Seed markets from Feb. 26 through May 21.

To enter, just choose up to three of your favorite Akron cell-phone photos, and submit them by online by Jan. 13.

You can submit photos through a form on the Mustard Seed website. Photos submitted from your mobile device must be uploaded through the non-mobile version of the Mustard Seed's website, which is accessible from IOS and Android mobile devices.

Artists will be informed by Jan. 26 if their photo is selected for the show, and will be asked to print and frame their photos in 5x7 or 8x10 sizes.

The Mustard Seed will only accept pictures that celebrate Akron, so no nudity, singular portraits, personal property or pet photos.
