Announcing Pattern Bloc

 

The Bloc is a new membership program operating out of Pattern. Its goal is to elevate Denver’s place in the photo world, while simultaneously creating a supportive community that pushes each person’s work and career forward.

The Bloc’s structure is based around three principles:

MOTIVATION

- Short and long-term goal setting
- A community that holds you to those goals
- A space to work, which moves you out of isolation and procrastination
- Monthly critique and happy hour
 

EDUCATION

- Monthly speakers
- Photobook Library of over 500 titles for research and inspiration 
- Workshops and informal talks with top photographers from around the country and world
 

REPUTATION

- Creating a database of Bloc photographers as a resource for editors and art buyers
- Co-marketing included in price
- Collaborative promotion through Pattern channels

APPLICATIONS

The Bloc is limited to 15 members, each of which receive a space to work at Pattern as part of the membership. Membership plus a dedicated desk space is $400 per month, membership plus a flex desk space is $250 a month.

The application period runs through November 1, 2019 and the Bloc is scheduled to launch Dec 1. Find more information and the application form here

The Denver Post's RJ Sangosti wrote a beautiful piece for the NPPA News Photographer magazine about Pattern and the community it is building.

"Seeing what Pattern Denver is doing to build a stafflike environment for independent photographers and freelancers makes me feel better. I know if I need it, I have the community at Pattern Denver."

Come by and pick up a copy of the magazine to read the rest of the story.
Hope to see you soon,

Benjamin Rasmussen, Pattern Co-Founder
