PhotoNOLA is an annual celebration of photography that is produced by the New Orleans Photo Alliance in partnership with museums, galleries, and venues citywide. Showcasing work by photographers near and far, the festival includes exhibitions, workshops, lectures, a portfolio review, and more.

The 19th annual PhotoNOLA festival includes in-person reviews, workshops, and live gallery exhibitions. We also have curated open-air in-person exhibitions which are highlighted around the city in partnership with local businesses. Photography will be celebrated the month of December with core programs and reviews taking place December 11 – 15, 2024.

Please join us to celebrate the art of photography, New Orleans style!

Twenty-minute face-to-face meetings with gallery owners, editors, publishers, and museum curators from throughout the U.S. provide photographers with networking opportunities, critical advice, and guidance for bringing their work to a larger audience.
