  "account": "Fujifilm is bringing its global photography festival, Fujikina New York, to the city for the first time in four years. The three-day event, set to take place October 16-18 in New York's Lower East Side, aims to turn the area into a \"living gallery space\" with various activities. The festival will feature award-winning photographs, photo walks, portfolio reviews, talks, gear checks, and more.\n\nFujifilm North America has released the full list of event details, which includes workshops, photo walks, gear checks, galleries showcasing award-winning photographs, and galleries still open for submission. Three galleries featuring award-winning images are already filled, including Magnum: A World in Color, the World Press Photo traveling gallery, and the International Center of Photography's exhibit on Japanese women photographers. Two additional galleries remain open for submission, allowing photographers to have their work displayed at the event.\n\nThe Fujifilm Community Gallery is specifically seeking submissions with a theme of \"Inheritance,\" with applications open through August 24. The gallery aims to feature photos that embody a lasting point of view, capturing stories, celebrating communities, documenting changing worlds, honoring influences, or immortalizing moments worth preserving. Another gallery, Refractions of Identity, curated by Femme Photo, is looking for images on the topic of Identity from women, femme-identifying, trans, and non-binary photographers, with submissions due today, August 17.\n\nThe event will also include talks with various photographers, including Alec Soth, Janette Beckman, Alison Conklin, Derek Fahsbender, Gary Hughes, Irene Yee, Jonas Rask, Melina Sue Gordon, Ritchie Roesch, Scott Dunan, and Tom Baumgaertel. Gear will be an integral part of the festival, with demos, loaners, and gear cleaning available. However, the focus remains on photography as an art form, welcoming photographers using any gear. Fujifilm Fujikina NYC 2026 tickets are now on sale for $10 for general admission, with some photowalks, workshops, and other experiences requiring additional purchases.",
