About Photo Oxford

Working in this unique university city and beyond, Photo Oxford is a progressive and creative charity mounting a biennial international photography festival in a range of historic venues. We also curate and promote exhibitions and commission work by photographers and photographic artists. Outreach and engagement with under-represented groups and communities is also an essential and expanding aspect of our work. We work with a wide range of partners in Oxford and beyond and have an active and supportive volunteering programme.

During the last festival, held in October and November 2025, we mounted a diverse range of exhibitions in over 20 venues across the city and attracted many thousands of local and international visitors.

Photo Oxford is funded by grants and donations from a range of sources including The Arts Council England, private trusts and patrons as well as income from an international 'open call' to photographers and photographic artists.
