Focus on the Story is an independent, nonpartisan, non-profit organization that supports and encourages photographers of diverse backgrounds to use visual storytelling to bring attention to critical issues, bridge cultural gaps and spark social change.
FOTS organizes its work in four program areas:
-- Hosting regular photography exhibits and talks, including an annual festival, around important regional, national and global issues
-- Providing resources, grants and training for visual artists so that they can better document and tell stories that are important to their communities
-- Working with nonprofit changemakers to help them tell their stories and raise awareness of their issues
-- Promoting powerful, impactful storytelling through the FOTS website and printed publications.
The cornerstone of FOTS programming is its annual festival, which brings photography lovers together for inspiring talks and workshops led by the world’s leading visual storytellers. For its inaugural festival in June 2018, FOTS put together a lineup of renowned photographers including Martin Parr, Joel-Peter Witkin, Duane Michals, Maggie Steber, Brian Griffin, Endia Beal, Xyza Cruz Bacani and many more.
