ALL PRESENTATION TIMES ARE PACIFIC DAYLIGHT TIME (PDT)

 

Symposiums are a form of discussion between a number of experts in a field and are led by a moderator.

The Palm Springs Photo Festival presents an important symposium for all attendees each day.  We organize the programs to bring together important and influential panelists from throughout the country to discuss issues of great interest / importance to emerging and professional photographers.  

All Attendees are invited to attend these important discussions each day.

WEDNESDAY: PHOTOGRAPHERS TALK PHOTOGRAPHY

THURSDAY: THE PERSON BEHIND THE CAMERA IS RELEVANT

Engaged Photographers published under the Minor Matters imprint will discuss their works and how they comment on and affect change for the societies we live in via their work.

Please join us Thursday, April 29 for a candid discussion with photographers and authors on why the person behind the camera has always been relevant, and remains so today.

Growing awareness of the many systems of prejudice and injustice still facing underrepresented populations in has stimulated a desire for change in our field, but has also created discomfort, and a fear of being “left out” as new voices are prioritized. Hear from three photographers about their own career trajectories and their perspectives on the social changes taking place today, along with their publisher, who co-founded and has guided a book list of lesser-seen viewpoints from an inclusive perspective.
