Portfolio days | Talks and Symposia

PORTFOLIO DAYS

Each Portfolio Day is programmed to take place at a gallery where there is a photography exhibition and is organised in collaboration with the gallery. The exhibiting photographer talks about their work and views portfolios and is partnered for the day by a professional who works with photographers. These days are devoted to looking at and talking about photography and are an excellent opportunity for networking.

We keep all delegate lists.
