Donate to ACP
Fifteen years ago, a group of passionate local photographers decided to celebrate all-things-photo in Atlanta by creating a small (but ambitious!) photo festival. Today, Atlanta Celebrates Photography produces the largest annual community-oriented photography festival in the country!
In honor of our 15th anniversary, we are asking you to please make a secure online donation (or mail it to our address below) today.
Because of your generous support, ACP
- Has been the catalyst for hundreds of thousands of people to experience the power of photography all over metro Atlanta and beyond
- Provides education and workshops to thousands of photographers of all ages and skill levels
- Works with high schools, senior centers, and teenagers who are receiving treatment at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta
- Connects photographers to world-renowned curators, art dealers, and agency representatives
- And much more!
We do not maintain our own venue (we take pride in producing events in venues all over the metro Atlanta area), so our overhead is low. Your investment in ACP will flow back into the community, magnified through our impactful programs that help to put Atlanta on the map as an international center for the world's fastest growing art form.
We can't do what we do without our biggest partner -- YOU.
Thank you for supporting ACP!

Film Series
The ACP Film Series explores the symbiotic connection between photography and film. We are pleased to frequently collaborate with Andy Ditzler of Frequent Small Meals since 2004.
Photobook Fair
Following the success of the inaugural Photobook Fair in 2009, ACP continues to provide an opportunity for photographers who have published books (on their own, or with publishers) to show, discuss, and sell their books to the public.
Portfolio Review
The ACP Portfolio Review and Walk offers artists the opportunity to meet with highly respected curators, dealers, editors, and agency representatives from across the US and beyond. The Portfolio Walk gives participating photographers the opportunity to present their work to the general public at an evening reception, open to all.
