PARTNERS

Al of our containers have filled up, but there are still many ways that you and your company, collective, or organization can work with UNITED PHOTO INDUSTRIES in creating the unique adestination that is PHOTOVILLE in Brooklyn Bridge Park this Summer:

Put together demonstrations, and/or set up an information tent - These are great ways to put your product and/or services out there to a greater community of photo and art lovers.

Organize lectures, workshops or panel discussions—there are few spots left in the schedule!

We also welcome new and creative ways to get the community excited about what we all do in the world of photography – so now is the time to get in touch with us!
