Sage’s vision is to create a space where photographers can meet and work together to exchange ideas and processes of photography and visual story telling.
Sage says, “I want to create a place in Santa Fe that is a center for new and exciting photography. New Mexico has a rich history of photography and photographers. Foto Forum Santa Fe will be a home to celebrate and expand photography in the 21st century that is alternative, community centered, and internationally connected.”
