We will be delivering free portfolio reviews and surgeries throughout the day. We invite you to bring along some work to get some friendly feedback from ourselves, and photographic peers. As well as that we are hosting a very informal drop-in round table chat, where we ask, "Working in photography in Manchester - how is it, what’s missing or needed, what would help your career, how can we work together?".
