April 2025 marks the return of Photography Month Sacramento, a vibrant celebration of the art of photography that promises to be the most event-packed yet! Coordinated by the Viewpoint Photographic Art Center, this month-long extravaganza brings together galleries, museums, and artists across the Sacramento region for a dazzling array of exhibits, workshops, and meet-ups. Whether you’re a seasoned photographer or just love a good snapshot, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
This year’s lineup is already shaping up to be extraordinary. The Crocker Art Museum will showcase Frames of Mind: The Ramer Photography Collection, alongside its popular ArtMix event, blending creativity and community. The California Museum dives into history with Our War Too: Women in Service, while General Gomez Arts in Auburn hosts Aperture 2025, an open-call exhibit focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion. For hands-on learning, the PSA Gold Rush Chapter offers a free floral photography workshop, and Sierra College’s Ridley Gallery presents (un)earthly, a thought-provoking display.
Don’t miss the Nevada County Camera Club’s Gold County on Cameras exhibit or the interactive experience at the Museum of Science and Curiosity (MOSAC). Local gems like Auburn Old Town Gallery and Sacramento Fine Arts Center are also joining in with unique showcases. The Events page on the Photography Month Sacramento website updates weekly, so keep checking for the latest additions.
Photography Month isn’t just about viewing—it’s about participating. Grab your camera, join a workshop, or attend an artist talk. It’s a chance to connect with a thriving creative community and see the world through a new lens. Mark your calendar for April 2025—this is one celebration you won’t want to miss!
