photoville festival 2026

We are gearing up for our 15th anniversary festival in 2026, and we cannot wait to see what you will bring. With the steadfast support of our longtime partners — Brooklyn Bridge Park, NYC Parks, and a vibrant network of cultural institutions and public spaces across the city — Photoville remains a platform for photographers, educators, and curators from around the world to share powerful visual stories that connect and inspire.

Photoville is eager to showcase projects across all spectrums of visual storytelling. We welcome work across ALL genres: global narratives, local histories, studio portraiture, street photography, collaborative archives, community-driven projects, and interdisciplinary approaches. We are looking for work that helps us to better understand ourselves and the world around us.

Independent artists selected for the festival do not pay exhibition costs. Photoville covers all design, production and installation expenses to ensure equitable participation.
