ABOUT FILTER PHOTO

ABOUT FILTER PHOTO

Since 2009, Filter Photo has been the driving force behind the annual Filter Photo Festival. The Festival hosts portfolio reviews, exhibitions, workshops, lectures, and other career-building initiatives to support photo-based artists nationwide.

The portfolio review program has been instrumental in connecting photo-based artists with curators, galleries, editors, and others who can provide artistic feedback, professional guidance, and career opportunities. 

In 2015, Filter Photo opened Filter Space, a permanent gallery and project space in Chicago’s West Town neighborhood. Through this space, Filter hosts a year-round program of exhibitions, workshops, and lectures to foster support for photo-based artists in Chicago and beyond.

Please join us in our mission and support Filter Photo through Membership or a tax-deductible donation.

Filter Photo is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization based in Chicago, Illinois.
