Big Ideas, Real Impact.
NPG presents monthly programs and events designed to create connections between people and photography!
Upcoming Programs
“Every Photo Tells a Story”
Every photograph has a story to tell—whether it captures a fleeting moment, evokes an emotion, or preserves a lasting memory. Join photographer John Pitocco as he explores the art of visual storytelling, sharing how composition, light, timing, and perspective work together to create compelling images. Through a collection of his photographs, John will reveal the stories behind the images and offer insights to help photographers create work that resonates with viewers.
Join us for an evening with John Pitocco October 14th, 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
