TC Photo is connecting photographers of different perspectives, genres, ages, backgrounds, and practices. Connections that edify, inform, and provoke. Connections with an art form, the most democratic of all, that rewards attention with enhanced insights about life and creativity.
Our Work, Your Contribution
Your contribution to TC Photo will be put to good use. The operating budget for the project is modest, about $20,000 for each of its years since 2015. Growth is happening intelligently, as warranted by audience response and fiscally enabled by contributions from the community at large and from state and private foundations.
Support the tradition of photography in the Twin Cities, the great state of Minnesota, and the global community of photocentric individuals. Please give what you can to maintain a non-profit spirit to programming around the leading art form of the 21st century.
HOW IT WORKS
As a fiscally sponsored project of Springboard for the Arts' Incubator program, all charitable transactions are guided through that organization. Credit card payments are made through GiveMN.org (where you are now); checks should be made payable to "Springboard for the Arts" and "TC Photo" should be written in the "For" note space. Please mail checks to me; my address is 229 Irving Avenue North, #319, Minneapolis, MN 55405. I will forward them to Springboard for deposit.
Thanks for your attention and support!

Founder and Director of TC Photo
