2026 Filter Photo Festival Kick Off!

Join us to kick off the 2026 Filter Photo Festival with a Welcome Reception at Leica Gallery. Catch up with other Festival attendees and view their current exhibition, Slant Rhymes by Alex Webb and Rebecca Norris Webb. Gallery Director, Lucas Zenk, will share brief remarks about the exhibition.

Slant Rhymes is a visual conversation between Alex Webb and Rebecca Norris Webb. Selected from photographs taken during the Webbs’ nearly 30-year relationship (a friendship evolving into a marriage and creative partnership), this group of photographs is laid out in pairs—one by Alex, one by Rebecca—to create a series of visual rhymes that talk to one another, often at a slant.
