How can my company become a Photoville Partner?

It takes a community to build a village and Photoville is no exception. Photoville wouldn’t be possible without the support of our wonderful partners.

There are many ways to partner with us! Fill out this short form for more information and we’ll be in touch.

What will the photo village look like?

Just like in 2024, we will have around 18 shipping containers in Brooklyn Bridge Park, joined by over 35 open-air photo exhibits and activations. The containers will house photo installations. On opening weekend, the village will host a range of programs (artist talks, workshops, screenings and more!)

Will there be exhibitions in all five boroughs again this year?

Yes! In addition to our Brooklyn Bridge Park photo village, we will be partnering with NYC Parks and other NYC cultural institutions and public spaces to exhibit open air installations.
