Photoville 2024 will kick off its celebratory Opening Weekend June 1 - 2 and the festival will run until June 16, 2024. You ask, and we deliver: our classic shipping containers will be returning to [Brooklyn Bridge Park]( as well as over 35 open-air exhibitions in [Brooklyn Bridge Park]( [NYC Parks]( and other NYC cultural institutions and public spaces in all five boroughs. [SEND US YOUR VISUAL STORIES]( We want to see what you have in store for 2024! Photoville is eager to showcase projects across all spectrums of visual storytelling. Whether done globally or locally, in a studio or in the streets, showcasing celebration, resilience, or challenges— or all three, your stories are what we want to see! Ultimately, we are looking for work that helps us to better understand ourselves and the world around us. [The deadline to submit a proposal is Thursday, January 18, 2024, 11:59PM Eastern Time]( However, we do encourage early submissions as we are already starting to discuss and lock in projects and public spaces. We think we can speak on behalf of the Photoville Village when we say: we will be THRILLED to see your work in summer 2024! And New York City? We can’t wait to see you too 😉.
