Vancouver is a city with a thriving arts scene, and it just got a little bit bigger thanks to a new and free photography festival coming to town this spring.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hosted at Gallery 881<\/a> in East Vancouver, Another Room<\/a> is a month-long festival from April 1 to April 30 that platforms all kinds of photographic practices.\u00a0<\/p>\n

More than 100 local artists will have their works featured throughout the festival, plus there will also be exhibitions, talks, workshops, youth programming, and community events. It\u2019s a whole new look at photography as a whole, and it\u2019s just in time for spring outings!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Inspired by the Salon des Refus\u00e9s, Another Room runs parallel to the theme of considering, appreciating, and respecting different art forms.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Creating additional spaces for voices and styles to be encountered on their own terms, you can expect to see a truly wide range of photographic approaches.<\/p>\n

Everything is equally unique, and there is no overarching theme for Another Room; it welcomes everything and anything photography-related. We\u2019re talking documentary, conceptual work, archival, staged, and even experimental works from emerging, mid-career, and established artists.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Events, workshops, panels, and talks\u00a0

Going beyond the gallery wall, there will be lots of exciting events to join. Highlights include the Why I Create panel talk on Saturday, April 18, that discusses the importance of personal work, and the Make Better Prints workshop, a half-day intensive where the pros will help you transform digital files into tangible art prints.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t forget the opening Another Room Photo Festival opening reception! This inaugural celebration brings together artists, community members, and supporters for a night of vibrant fun. That means music, charcuterie, and cheese catering by Savoury Chef.<\/p>\n

Offering an open and alternative festival model alongside establishing programming, Another Room is set to be a thrilling cultural experience. Come down to Gallery 881 to check out Another Room<\/a> all-month long.\u00a0<\/p>\n
