Are you looking for opportunities to exhibit, publish, or sell your photography? Do you need feedback or advice about an ongoing project? If so, Month of Photography Portfolio Reviews are an excellent opportunity to advance your photography practice and career.
Over two days, you’ll have an opportunity to meet one-on-one with about 30 of the most important people in the field of photography, including museum curators, gallery owners, publishers, collectors, and other industry leaders from Colorado and the United States.
Organized by the Colorado Photographic Arts Center (CPAC), Month of Photography Reviews have a reputation for being welcoming and friendly, making them an ideal choice for emerging and early-career photographers. Reviews are not juried, and registration fees are less expensive than most other national reviews. We also offer college students a discounted rate.
The next Month of Photography Portfolio Reviews will take place March 17 – 18, 2023 at The Curtis Hotel in Denver.
The registration fees are $312 (6 reviews), $416 (8 reviews) and $624 (12 reviews).
