Women Photojournalists of Washington is a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to educating the public about the role of women-identifying visual journalists and fostering their professional success. WPOW’s primary mission is to educate the public about the important role that women-identifying visual journalists play in a traditionally male dominated industry. We bring current events and issues into clear view for diverse audiences through our annual programming. Our Seminar + Portfolio Review has become one of the leading reviews in the country, drawing the industry’s top editors and welcoming diverse talent. Our annual curated exhibition of member work premieres in the Washington area before going on tour with our own guest speakers to universities and galleries across the country as well as internationally. Additional programming includes lectures, workshops, project support grants, a mentorship program and monthly networking gatherings.
