Exposed DC Photography Show Partners: Critical Exposure

Exposed DC 2016 Show Partner - Critical Exposure

We’re very excited to start telling you about some great stuff we have planned for the opening night of the Exposed DC Photography Show on March 10. We’ve always tried to make Exposed DC a conduit for photography lovers to find the many great organizations that have been working in the community for years, so we’ve invited a few of them to join us in celebrating local photography in hope you’ll discover something new. We’ll be introducing each one over the next few days.

Let’s start with Critical Exposure, a phenomenal non-profit group that teaches students in Washington, D.C. how to use photography to advocate for themselves. We hope you’ll stop by their table in the ballroom to talk to these talented students and Critical Exposure staff about the work they’re doing, and see examples of the projects they’ve pursued.

Get advance tickets for opening night soon!
