From 19 January – 02 April 2026, we’ll take over four floors of the ARB building (where we’ve shown many other awesome Shutter Hub exhibitions, including Shutter Hub OPEN 2025, POSTCARDS FROM EUROPE and EVERYTHING I EVER LEARNT) transforming the space and covering the walls with hundreds of images printed by our favourite newspaper print partners Newspaper Club. As an added bonus for 2026, the last two weeks of the exhibition will also see it featured as part of the Cambridge Festival.
As always there’ll be an award for the ‘Best in Show’, where viewers will get to vote for their favourite photographs from the exhibition. This is much more about audience participation than it is about big prizes, but it’s a fun and engaging way to involve more people in responding to photography.
We’ll be hosting an exhibition private view in January, showcasing our Pop-Up Photobook Library for the duration of the exhibition (submit your photobooks here!), and presenting talks and tours during Cambridge Festival. More details to come soon!
