The National Press Photographers Association is relocating its headquarters to UGA.
NPPA is the voice of visual journalists, representing photographers, videographers, multimedia journalists, editors, designers, visual managers and academicians, with nearly 6,000 members nationwide and around the world.
The association’s move will provide the Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication’s growing photojournalism department access to resources for students including contact with visiting professionals, participation in workshops taught by NPPA staff and members and employment opportunities, including the potential to work with the organization’s News Photographer magazine and website. The relocation also will allow Grady College’s research faculty to access the association’s Best of Photojournalism contest entries for study.
