Professional Development Seminars

During the International Meeting Place, FotoFest organizes professional development and learning opportunities for artists, arts professionals, and the general public. Conducted by some of the most respected photography experts in the field today, these seminars aggregate decades of invaluable information and practice in an effort to further professional careers and stimulate appreciation for the art of photography.

Media and marketing experts, publishers, artists, curators, and editors reveal their experience and expertise in photography and how it relates to the internet and social media, traditional gallery spaces, museums, publications, and multi-media platforms within the contemporary art world.
