To celebrate the opening of the festival, Photoville will present a free Community Weekend (June 7 and 8), a visual storytelling event bringing various artists to Brooklyn Bridge Park, featuring 60 exhibitions and free public programming from Leica Camera, Creatively Wild, The Pulitzer Center, The International Center of Photography, The Marshall Project, Cynthia Santos Briones, The End Fund, The Climate Museum, and food and beverage vendors from Photoville’s longtime friends at Smorgasburg.
The evening of Saturday June 7 will see visual stories projected on the big screen under the Brooklyn Bridge for Catchlight’s “Night of Photojournalism,” in partnership with Enlight Foundation and PhotoWings, taking viewers behind the lens to explore what it takes to document truth in a complex world. It will kick off with a special presentation—from the Chris Hondros Fund and Photoville—of Tamir Kalifa’s “WITNESS,” a multimedia performance of story, song, and photography.
