Future Goals & Fundraising Needs

Slideshow Exhibition Series

Travel permitting, we plan to restart our Slideshow Exhibition Series. Since 2019, we have held 7 slideshows across America and abroad. These are community-based art events that bring people out from behind their computers and together in real life to share photography made in response to depression. They include an exhibit, panel discussion, and publication online.

Named Scholarships

A named scholarship for BIPOC/LGBTQIA photographers for educational expenses related to furthering their careers/crafts.

Print Studio & Gallery Space

A brick and mortar workspace in Vermont, equipped with state-of-the-art digital lab facilities as well as a darkroom, photobook library, gallery, and premium printing services. This physical space will house our Tired Talk Series, workshops, artist in residence workspaces, portfolio reviews, etc., and will focus on high-end contemporary photography and related events, but will also feature a strong community programming component that aims to make photography an inclusive and accessible medium for all.

Tired Talk Interview Series/Podcast

Interviews with photographers about their mental wellness routines and how it relates to their artistic practice.
