Photo Kathmandu information


Photo Kathmandu is a biennial international photography festival held in Patan, Nepal, and organised by photo.circle, a Kathmandu based cultural organisation,[1] and Shikshya Foundation Nepal.[2][3]

The festival, managed with the help of local volunteers, features print exhibitions, workshops, talks and panel discussions, a mixed-media residency, slideshow nights, portfolio reviews and an arts and education programme.[4] It distinguished itself by being an open air festival,[5][6] anchored in the local communities of Patan and Kathmandu, and using public spaces such as courtyards, squares, alleys and drinking fountains to exhibit photographic bodies of work and to present slideshows.[7][8] At each festival, Photo Kathmandu recognises individuals who have helped the growth of Nepali photography with an Award for Excellence.
