WPPD, Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day, is an international annual event. The pinholeday.org website is run by a group of volunteers, who work to encourage people to learn the basics of photography.
One way to learn is by joining one of the many workshops that take place around the globe on Pinholeday. If you host a workshop or other event related to Pinholeday, you can add it to the events page by using the submission form on that page. It will be published on the website once it has been approved by the organizing team.
Anyone, anywhere in the world, who makes a pinhole photograph on the last Sunday of April can upload it to pinholeday.org, where it will become part of the annual Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day online gallery. Read more on how to build a camera and how to participate on pinholeday.org. Happy pinholing!
Contribute your own work, or if you are not quite ready to take part, you can enjoy the work of other artists and get inspired for next year. Here are some links to follow:
