11 Share TweetIt’s time to load up your film cameras and stretch your analogue muscles! All over the world, Lomography Gallery Stores and Embassy Stores will be hosting fantastic activities in honor of Film Photography Day. Here is the complete line-up of events happening worldwide.
Lomography Gallery Store Events
Hong Kong
There’s too much analogue goodness this year to contain in one day so this year’s celebration of film will be split into two rounds. On the first day, come by our store for endless experimentation with instant cameras; from bizarre bokeh shapes to creating glowing art using a variety of light painting tools. We will top that off with tons of lust-worthy giveaways in a lucky draw and delicious food and cocktails! For round two, join our very special guest host for a LomoWalk and fun film swap; the participant with the wackiest shots bags up a La Sardina.

Paris
Lomography x Expolaroid
The year, we are very happy to join forces with Expolaraid and have got some bangin’ events in store for you! Created in Nantes (France) by a group of passionate photographers in 2013, Expolaroid is a national and international festival which, each year in April, devotes itself to put instant photography and its usages in the spotlight. Starting the 5th of April, we will be celebrating this rich medium by displaying some of the best instant photography from local Amigos and community members. Interested in testing out our instant cameras? Then come by our store on the 2nd and/or 16th of April and experiment with multiple exposures, light painting, splicing and dicing, and much more! We will round things off with a very special celebration of music, beer, instants, and of course lots of love.

Join us on April 16th at La Percha for the annual celebration of all things analogue. This year’s line-up includes a Lomo’Instant workshop, a rockin’ raffle, special discounts, and loads of games, music, and yummy cocktails. You can also get a window into school life in Bogota by browsing through our small gallery of photos taken by local students. So log off and come by this cozy boutique store to meet and share ideas with other members of the Lomography community.
Istanbul
We will have a meet up at the Lomography Embassy Store, where we’ll talk about Lomography and analogue photography in general. Then, we will start taking pictures around the neighborhood until we finish our film rolls; after which, all the participants will randomly pick a used roll to shoot over for the second part of our photowalk. There will be a community exhibit as well as a happy hour!

Vienna
We have officially launched the new Daguerreotype Achromat lens – a revival of optical design from 1839 by Daguerre and Chevalier, and we know you can’t wait to get your hands on this beauty! Good news is, we managed to secure one of the very first prototypes of the newly launched lens for you to try out. Join us in Lomography Embassy Shop Vienna for a hands-on session with this highly versatile tool for modern day cameras and see the beautiful effects first hand – from crisp sharpness to silky soft focus, and multiple bokeh effects.
