We are excited to announce the results of the Money and Nostalgia Challenge. If you press the link, you can see the top entries showcased in the Second Annual ProgresFestival.
Our hunch that there was a connection between money and nostalgia was proven correct by the strong emotions evoked by so many of the images. Although money is important, we can balance our materialistic desires with sentimental memories and creative ideas. The calendar is available for sale to anyone who requests it. However, please note that shipping costs can be high. It would be nice if you displayed the Progressive calendar in your homes.
THE WINNERS
Congratulations to all the Winners, Honourable Mentions, and other participants of this inspiring venture. Winners receive a free copy of the relevant Money or Nostalgia calendar.
We have a small exhibition relating to this theme from 7 to 30 November 2023.

Our Festival is not for profit. The goal is to discover and show images that are true testimonies of our time, without cultural stereotypes. Images that are not clichés. Images by photographers who document meaningful examples of life, stripped of all artifice. Images that awaken connections, provoke insights and inspire optimism too.
We turn to photographers who are actively involved in daily life - yet specifically pursue street photography, documentary photography, and photojournalism without distinction between professionals and non-professionals.
We appeal to all photographers with a soul, because this trait is the impetus for all important forms of artistic, political and social expression. And all serious photographers reflect this trinity in their craft.
The 24 winning photos will be exhibited in Autumn as well as printed in a calendar and PPH publication

It was possible to make the first edition of the Festival thanks to the generosity of Fabio Balestra
