“It was a one of a kind experience, a lifetime of memories made in a week. ”
— Vincent Glielmi, 2024 Attendee
“The reviewers changed the whole shape of how I was thinking about making work and I walked away with an incredible photo dweeb community and friends for life. We lived and breathed each other and photography every minute of every day and I’ve never laughed so hard in my life. A magic little pocket of time where we all got to be part of something. This will change the course for me. ”
— Nikki Culley, 2024 Attendee

“The Chico Review is about the people you meet. I was really nervous that people were not going to like me because I felt like an imposter, but i was very wrong! Chico is the warmest workshop I’ve ever been to. When I got home I told my wife I felt like I had been gone 7 years instead of 7 days, so much had changed.

2024 Selection Jury

 
 
“Chico is such a special event. There is very much a pre and post Chico. Pre-Chico I knew many of the attendees and reviewers by their work alone, but by the time it was over, I knew them. No longer just each others followers, but friends. ”
— Vincent Glielmi, 2024 Attendee
“The space and the environment created by Chico Review allowed me to dive deep into myself. The thoughtful insight, genuine support and the stimulating conversations all happening in an incredible setting, just made it all a truly unforgettable and very special experience.”
— Olya Vysotskaya, 2024 Merit Scholar
