*V sklopu kandidature Kranja z Gorenjsko za naziv Evropske prestolnice kulture 2025
Posvet z vabljenimi gosti s področja fotografske dejavnosti in zainteresirane javnosti o skupnem razvojnem projektu »Fotografski festival Kranj«, s katerim želimo povezati vse akterje, vsa polja fotografije in vse ideje z ambicioznim ciljem – Kranj, Evropska prestolnica kulture 2025. Kranj je rojstno mesto Janeza Puharja, prvega slovenskega fotografa in izumitelja fotografije na steklo, kar bi bila lahko najbolj fascinantna mednarodna zgodba tega mesta, saj je Puhar s svojim izumom, s priznanjem v Parizu, z odmevi v tedanjem tisku po svetu in na treh svetovnih razstavah človeške ustvarjalnosti dosegel več kot katerikoli Kranjčan doslej. Fotografska dejavnost v našem mestu je vse odtlej živahna in razširjena, fotografija sama pa je postala nepogrešljivo sredstvo komunikacije v sodobnem svetu. Razlogov za velik festival je torej več kot dovolj. Vabljeni vsi, ki želite prispevati k projektu, s katerim bomo Kranj v slovensko zavest umestili kot glavno mesto fotografije.
