Photography Discussion Seminars

Join us at our monthly photography seminar discussion groups. Our goal is to help the emerging photographer to succeed in the world of fine art photography. We will talk about the steps needed to get your work into the art seen and the business tools to do it with. Our seminars are more like a discussion roundtable than just lecture classrooms. Click here for seminar information and registration. Sign up today. Space is limited.

Friends of the Arts Awards Program

As a part of its 10th anniversary celebrations, Friends Of The Arts initiated an awards program honoring persons who have contributed their time and talent to both FOTA and the art community of Chicago. These persons were selected for their dedication and devotion to helping FOTA reach its goals of helping emerging artists establish their identity in the art arena. We plan to make this a yearly event and extend our continued "Thanks" to these awardees for their unending support.
