New England Portfolio Review | March 11 - 13, 2022

We are thrilled to start of 2022 with the New England Portfolio Reviews in March of 2022!

Since 2009 The New England Portfolio Reviews (NEPR) have been co-produced by the Griffin Museum of Photography, Winchester, MA and the Photographic Resource Center (PRC), Cambridge, Massachusetts with the mission of bringing reviewers and photographers from New England and beyond for two days of discussion, networking, and gaining fresh perspective on one’s work. This NEPR is an online event to be held on March 11-13, 2022 with a keynote lecture by Meghann Riepenhoff – March 11th at 7pm.

NEPR serves photographers who are just embarking on their careers and more established photographers hoping to reach new audiences. The online format allows for an expansion of participants in volume and in location including reviewers such gallerists, book publishers, museum professionals, critics, educators and advisors from all over the world who provide guidance and potential opportunities to grow artist practices.

Of the 90+ participating photographers, ten are emerging photographers that will receive full scholarships. We believe that providing professional opportunities to emerging photographers is key to keeping the industry strong and active.
