Participate in ICP’s Community Open Call
In these times of quarantine and social distancing, photographs can inform, inspire, and offer much needed respite. As a community of artists, educators, and supporters of photography and imagemaking, we would love to see the work you are creating right now. Share your images and stories with ICP by using #ICPConcerned and we’ll share select images on @ICP on Instagram. Learn more about our open call.
