Returns for its Third Edition in May 2025
Saint Petersburg Month of Photography (SPMOP) is back this May for its highly anticipated third edition, offering a month-long celebration of the art of photography across the Tampa Bay area. The festival will feature an exciting lineup of exhibitions, events, and programs, including a special showcase of the five finalists for the prestigious 2025 Photo Laureate award, as well as a solo exhibition by the current Photo Laureate, Ric Savid.
“We believe photography is both an art form and a powerful reflection of our community,” says Marieke van der Krabben, Executive Director of SPMOP. “The Photo Laureate program sits at the heart of this mission, giving a photographer the time and space to create a body of work that celebrates the diverse voices, stories, and landscapes of the Tampa Bay region. This exhibition represents the culmination of that journey—an inspiring testament to the power of creative trust.”
