New England Portfolio Reviews 2023

New England Portfolio Reviews ONLINE
May 5-7, 2023, 9am-6pm, both days
Friday, May 5, 7–8pm, Keynote Lecture with Baldwin Lee

Since 2009 NEPR has been co-produced by the Griffin Museum of  Photography and the PRC (Photographic Resource Center) with the mission of bringing reviewers and photographers together from New England and beyond for two days of discussion, networking, and gaining fresh perspective on one’s work. NEPR serves photographers who are just embarking on their careers, and more established photographers, all hoping to reach new audiences and gain fresh perspective on their work. The online format allows for an expansion of participants in volume and in location including reviewers such as gallerists, book publishers, museum professionals, critics, educators and advisors from all over the world who provide guidance and potential opportunities to grow artist practices.

Join us on Friday May 5th for an online keynote event with Photographer Baldwin Lee.

Saturday May 6th & 7th is a day of conversations between industry professionals and our creative community for one on one sessions.

Each participant will have five (5) 25 minute reviews in either a morning session (9.00am to 12pm) or the two afternoon sessions 12pm – 3pm or 3pm – 6pm (Eastern Time Zone)
