Join us for this exciting one-day SNAP! photo-collecting workshop! Gallerists, artists, established and more recent collectors will share their collecting know-how, experiences, and philosophies. Bill Hunt—a frequent lecturer on the art of collecting and an adjunct professor at the School of Visual Arts—will moderate the event, ensuring a fun, intimate, break-down-the-barriers atmosphere, and attendees will have the opportunity to submit questions in advance.
At the event, each attendee will receive a complimentary pass for Sunday, May 15 to the New York Photo Festival.
Join SNAP! and participate not only in this event but in a full calendar of activities exclusively for SNAP! members. Upcoming events include a studio tour with Penelope Umbrico and a special tour of Phillips de Pury & Company’s next Photographs Auction in the fall led by their worldwide Director of Photographs, Vanessa Kramer.
