The UNL Photo Club is a student organization founded by students in the Department of Art and Art History’s studio art program. The club was formed in 2011 under the advisory of Dana Fritz, professor of art.
Proceeds from the sale support club members’ participation in national and regional Society for Photographic Education conferences. These conferences provide opportunities for students to interact with other students and faculty from around the country, as well as major figures in the field of photography. Students can participate in portfolio critiques, open portfolio sharing, lectures, demonstrations and workshops as well as visits to galleries and museums in the host city. Proceeds also support participation in 16x16x16, an exhibition of student work that travels among six universities and colleges each spring semester.
