Northern Exposure 2025

Mark your calendars! Northern Exposure 2025 is set for Friday, April 4 – Saturday, April 5 at the University of Minnesota’s Hubbard School of Journalism and Mass Communication in Murphy Hall on the East Bank of the Mississippi River in Minneapolis.

Northern Exposure is an anything-but-the-same-old conference to talk photography, video and storytelling. For the last several years, photojournalists have shaped the way we receive news about the pandemic, unrest, social justice and more. It hasn’t always been easy, but it’s been important. Let’s gather to learn from each other and inspire one another.

Join us on Friday for a student-focused program (everyone is welcome to attend) with a Friday night get-together open to anyone. On Saturday there will be great keynote speakers and breakout sessions with optional dinner options.

A light breakfast is provided each day and lunch is included in your registration. Pre-registered attendees will receive a t-shirt. (Day-of registrations may only receive a t-shirt if available).

Early Bird Pricing: $60/pros and $15/students, Friday breakfast and boxed lunch, Saturday breakfast and lunch, Sunday breakfast, and a t-shirt. Saturday only, $50, Sunday only, $25. Students, Friday only, $10.

After March 1: $75/pros and $20/students, Friday breakfast and boxed lunch, Saturday breakfast and lunch, Sunday breakfast, and a t-shirt. Saturday only, $50, Sunday only, $25.
