SACRAMENTO REGION, CA (MPG) – Save the date for Photography Month Sacramento happening in April 2026. Led by Viewpoint Photographic Art Center, a non-profit organization located in Midtown Sacramento, Photography Month Sacramento is a grassroots collaboration among many partner organizations, each creating their own photo-related events and activities.

Supporting community organizations include Inside Publications, Sacramento County Board of Supervisors Office of Phil Serna (District 1) and Visit Sacramento/Sacramento365.com. First launched in 2018, the month-long event is highlighted by a variety of diverse and eclectic events that include exhibits, receptions, photo shoot meet-ups, workshops, lectures, field trips and more.

Photography Month Sacramento creates a shared platform for galleries, museums, educational institutions, libraries, retail establishments, hotels, photographers and patrons to celebrate and elevate the art of photography. Interested participants are encouraged to create and/or highlight their own activations to help showcase the art of photography. 

Thus far, a number of museums, businesses, and educational institutions from throughout the region have already signed up to participate in 2026, including: California Museum, Crocker Art Museum, Casa de Espanõl, Gold Country Photo Society, Leland Stanford Mansion State Historic Park, Nevada County Camera Club, Open Call Exhibit: Spring Light, Old Sugar Mill, Sierra College, Rocklin, Viewpoint Photographic Art Center and Yolo Arts’ Gallery 625.

Involvement in Photography Month Sacramento for non-profit and for-profit businesses, museums and organizations is free and simple to do. The regional showcase offers a turnkey way to highlight visually enticing photographic programming already in place (possibly by incorporating a fresh visual element or hosting a special artist reception), introduce a concept in the planning stages or create something unique to engage enthusiasts and connect with new audiences throughout the region.  

Photography Month Sacramento is open to everyone – professional and amateur photographers alike – and offers wonderful opportunities to launch and/or exhibit photographic work, or to create a grassroots collaborative exhibit with friends interested in the visual arts. Those interested are encouraged to get creative and plan individual activations and/or contact favorite local coffee houses or restaurants to see if they might host an exhibit or reception in April 2026.  

Once any photography-related concepts are confirmed by businesses, organizations, museums or individuals, Photography Month Sacramento participants are asked to post information details about any upcoming events at www.photomonthsacramento.org/events, a community curated calendar that is connected to and supported by Sacramento365.com.
