The 'new' photoresk - what is important to you?

organising at global and local level * galleries * Q&A * opportunities * connections * boosting visibility

Hello Photoresk Member,

Thank you for being part of our international photography community.

We are currently transitioning from Meetup.com to our new independent platform, photoresk.com, to build a more dynamic, interactive, and sustainable home for our members.

To ensure the long-term health and growth of Photoresk as a non-profit, member-focused organization, we are exploring new offerings and a sustainable funding model. Your feedback is critical in shaping this future.

This survey will take approximately 5–7 minutes to complete. Your responses are anonymous and will directly influence the types of events, workshops, and benefits we develop.

As a thank you, all completed respondents can enter a draw to win one of three professional one-on-one portfolio reviews.
