The Turchin Center for the Visual Arts (TCVA), in addition to hosting the annual AMPC finalists exhibition, hosts a Portfolio Review program for our registrants.

Portfolio reviews are 20-minute, in-person, one-on-one review sessions with curators, Appalachian State University photography faculty, gallery owners, and publishers, in which the photographer and reviewer will discuss a portfolio of 20 of the photographer’s best images.

About thirty photographers will be selected to participate in portfolio reviews based on a lottery drawing, and any photographer who enters this year’s competition is eligible to enter the lottery drawing.

Portfolio Reviews are a great way to network with reviewers and photography colleagues. All registered contestants will receive an e-mail invitation to sign up for the lottery drawing after the  annual entry deadline, so once registration ends keep an eye out for e-mails from us!
