The Washington, DC area is about to become ‘photo central’ – even if you are not able to attend, I urge you to have a look at all the exciting events, exhibitions, discussions, films and video projection, portfolio reviews and more that the organizers and sponsors are bringing to the community. It is outstanding! Hats off and hearty congratulations to all those involved, most especially the dedicated volunteers. If only to be nearby…
From the event website, www.fotoweekdc.org:
“The week of November 15-22, 2008 will mark the launch of FotoWeek DC, the first annual gathering of a diverse and wide-ranging photography community in the nation’s capital, including photographers, museums, universities and all those involved in the profession across the metro D.C. area, including Virginia and Maryland. Unique among American cities, Washington, D.C. is a nexus of artistic, business, political and public sector energy, in which photography plays an integral role. FotoWeek DC seeks to bring together all photographers and imaging professionals from every discipline to join with the public in celebration of the medium.”
