Monthly Projects
Monthly projects range in complexity and lean heavily toward development of new ways of seeing and printing your work. Past projects include a conceptual softcover photo book, the development of personal folklore & myth-making, romancing the family archive, works in and around bodies of water, seeing the self and experimental remote photography.

Group Critique
MEMORY CULT has four groups meetings: The Magic Patio monthly project presentation, SYLLABUS Book Club, topical Roundtables and the newly added Group Critique. Meetings range from loose and informal storytelling to rigorous critique designed to expand clarity and coherence within a body of work.
