How do we put Detroit and our vibrant lens based community on the map?

The Detroit Photo + Film Community is filled with innovators and creators of magnificent capacity. Each deserve to be highlighted on the international stage. Although there are 170+ international photo + film festivals hosted in major cities all over the world each year, we have not had a large scale vision for a festival of this scale in Detroit yet.

NOVA24 | Photo + Film Festival, coming in July 2024, will be a melting pot of innovative ideas for both the creators and the leaders of the industry, which will result in many future opportunities. International artists, curators, publishers, and more will find ways to collaborate in city spaces and create a launch point for future relationships.
