The Festival will take place across a range of venues and galleries in Birmingham, Dudley and Wolverhampton, from 6 May to 7 June 2017. 

To accompany the street events a travelling gallery exhibition, hosted by Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery and Wolverhampton Art Gallery, will offer the public a unique opportunity to see a selection of photographs by UK and international amateur, professional and world renowned photographers.

- still life photography

- photo journalism

- experimental imagery

600 images will be printed and exhibited in traditional format alongside presesnted in digital and projected format.
