A FotoWeek Hit List

Posted on by

The FotoWeek DC calendar is a little daunting, so I’ve looked through it and pulled out some of the events that should be worth attending. This list is primarily made up of workshops, seminars and other talks.  There are also many exhibitions all around the city that are ongoing.
