The LOOK3 Festival of the Photograph is a visual celebration. Historic downtown Charlottesville is transformed into a living gallery with outdoor screenings, exhibitions and presentations from legendary icons of photography. Nan Goldin, Mary Ellen Mark and Steve McCurry are few among the unique and engaging personalities who took the stage in 2011 to share their stories.

Our mission is to celebrate the vision of extraordinary photographers, ignite conversations about critical issues, and foster the next generation of artists.

The LOOK3 Festival of the Photograph supports the established community priorities identified in the Create Charlottesville/Albemarle Cultural Plan. We encourage you to read over the plan and think about how you can contribute to the continued growth of Charlottesville’s arts and culture community!
