From June 2-5th, Boston will be hosting the second annual Flash Forward Festival at theFairmount Battery Wharf in the North End. Started by the Magenta Foundation, the festival is-

"...aimed at both professional art makers and members of the general public with an interest in contemporary photography.

Hosted at Fairmont Battery Wharf, Boston, the Flash Forward Festival concept is unique among North American visual arts events. Through a carefully developed program of lectures, panel discussions, exhibitions and receptions, festival participants will make connections with important industry personalities, gallerists, content developers and potential patrons, all while gaining insight into the state of the contemporary art scene.

Whether you are an emerging or established photographer, an arts-based media professional — or just a lover of photography — this festival experience is for you."

And best of all- it's free! I will be volunteering at the event on Saturday, June 4, and I think it will be fun! See you there.
