Come celebrate the love of film, learn new ideas and techniques, listen to passionate artists using the analog medium, and get inspired at our first ever Film Weekend Extravaganza!

This weekend will be a mix of guest speakers discussing the analog medium, tech reps presenting concepts (new and old), such as camera scanning and large format photography, film experiences, and good old fashioned community building (come meet some new friends). We will have film giveaways and free raffles.

Also, the first 40 people to sign up for either day on the weekend will be able to submit a film image that Hunt’s Photo will print and display as part of Film Only Gallery Opening!

On Saturday, August 8th, our guest speaker will be the author of the DIY book This Book is a Camera, Kelli Anderson, who will be discussing analog experiences in the digital world. We will also be joined by reps from Negative Supply, Intrepid Cameras, Ago Film Processors, Fujifilm, and more! As more details emerge, we will update this page, so feel free to check back in!

Other projects include a viral paper record player and—with The Yes Men—a utopian counterfeited New York Times, which won the Ars Electronica Prix. Doctors without Borders have used the award-winning Tinybop Human Body app she created to communicate illness and treatment nonverbally to their patients in remote areas. Clients include NPR, the New Yorker, the Guggenheim, MoMA, Apple, and the New York Times.  She has been nominated for the Cooper-Hewitt Smithsonian National Design Award three times.
