Call for Volunteers – Landscape Photography Festival

 

Are you passionate about photography and interested in being part of something exciting?

The festival is a collaboration between TheNCF in Ballina and Abhainn Studio, and will feature a vibrant multi-week programme of exhibitions, outdoor workshops, and artist-led events.

We're looking for volunteers with an interest in photography to help shape and support the development of this new festival.
