Each year, the President chooses the theme for the Set Assignment. This year's President, John Leighton, has set the theme of 'Leading Lines'. Any interpretation is acceptable, with the only rule being that the shutter must have been pressed in the year after the announcement of the theme.

Next season's President, Jane Roby, has set the theme of ' Seize the Moment'  for November 2026.
