What is a Kinship call for engagement?
The Kinship call-for-engagement is the collective heart and hearth of our community.
At Kinship, we love open circles that welcome unique and varied perspectives.
With a passion for inquiry & community, we introduce big themes—that inspire big questions—and big conversations.
We invite curious photographers — just like you — to join us as we explore, collaborate, and create.
Together, we use the phenomenal power of photography to inspire new ways of seeing and being together.
As a community of practice, we encourage and celebrate authenticity and vulnerability.
We understand that your situated history creates uniquely different lived and embodied experiences—your unique way of seeing the world is your gift to Kinship.
Our engagement themes are meant to be doorways, not boxes—each photographer is welcome to follow their process wherever it leads.
Kinship “calls” last for 12 months, giving everyone a chance to find their own authentic response.
Think of our calls and prompts as catalysts for your own curiosity & wonder.
At Kinship, generosity and reciprocity are the kindling of our community.
In contrast to cultures of competition, our community freely shares resources, knowing that our unique visual voices will be woven into collective projects and exhibitions that provide in-depth and varied perspectives.
Are you ready to follow your curiosity & wonder to kinship & community?
