What is SNAP!?
The newly launched SNAP! is a membership group for young photography aficionados and collectors aged 21–40. SNAP! welcomes both novice and seasoned photography buffs with an annual calendar of complimentary members-only parties, meet-the-artists events, informal educational offerings, and online activities, all to foster the growth of an exciting, vibrant community of like-minded photo enthusiasts. Proceeds from SNAP! support the Emerging Artists Fund at Aperture Foundation, one of America’s most respected and influential organizations devoted to fine art photography.
