Since 2017, Carlos Diaz has travelled 30,000 miles photographing Confederate Monuments as they are being removed. As a person of color, he is “bravely attentive” to American history and national shortcomings on race and diversity.

In an effort to better understand the controversy and complexity of Confederate Monuments, Carlos hopes his viewers will engage as culture transforms, and contribute to conversations about our changing American experience.

Since 2018, Eileen Powers has had 11 rounds of chemotherapy, abdominal resection surgery due to lymphoma, a stem cell transplant and a CAR t-cell treatment.

She is a photographer, artist and graphic designer living on Cape Cod who fought cancer with levity and joy. Upon losing hair to chemo, her friends replaced it in the most humorous ways – eventually making nearly 100 heads of replacement hair.

Personal Projects are created from a burning desire to photograph with a message in mind.

The subject of your message could be on identity, diversity, atrocity, or even a pandemic. But how do you get started? How do you gain access to photograph the subjects that inspire you? And what about process? If starting can be hard, how do you know when you are done?

The Board of Directors of the Photographic Society of Northwest Arkansas strives to provide benefits to members including the distinguished photographer series, classes, and events. As our region’s leading community of photographers, our primary concern during this unprecedented time is to ensure the health and safety of our members. Because of this, PSNWA is announcing several changes to the schedule in light of the current health risks associated with the COVID-19 virus.

The Photographic Society of Northwest Arkansas is postponing in-person classes and events, but will continue to provide services for members by scheduling online meetings and webinars.
