About
Soho Photo Gallery is an artist-run gallery that nurtures high quality, diverse fine-art photography, while creating an environment that is uniquely welcoming to visitors and member photographers.
The gallery was founded in 1971 by a group of New York Times photographers who desired a venue for photography as fine-art. Originally located on Prince St. in Soho, since 1980, the gallery has been at our current location on White St. in Tribeca.
Soho Photo exhibits a diverse range of fine-art photography each month, with individual member shows, gallery-wide themed exhibits, winners of national competitions and prestigious guest exhibitions.
Membership is highly selective and members are required to participate in the operation of the gallery. Soho Photo offers its members the opportunity for personal growth as a fine-art photographer, whether it’s an emerging young artist, those pursuing a second career or an avid photographer fulfilling a lifetime interest. The gallery also offers workshops and lectures open to members and the public.
The Gallery Space
Soho Photo has more than 235 linear feet (72 meters) of exhibit wall space. All of that room affords us the opportunity to show significant bodies of work from up to seven artists concurrently. We exhibit the work of our gallery artists—as well as invited guests and artists whose work has been selected in our competitions. We invite artists who would like to join Soho Photo Gallery to submit a portfolio for review.
