The Chico Review is the country’s premier Photobook Retreat. Organized by Charcoal Book Club, The Chico Review takes place over seven days at Chico Hot Springs Resort, near Livingston Montana. Eighty applicants will be selected by our jury and invited to spend the week with over twenty five of the most influential and creative photographers, book makers, gallerists, museum curators, and photobook publishers in the industry. One full tuition scholarship, two half tuition scholarships, and five partial tuition scholarships will be awarded. Student discounts and need-based scholarships will be available to those selected who qualify.
Attending artists receive ten formal reviews by speakers and reviewers and take part in artist lectures, panel discussions, peer reviews, Q&A sessions, and additional evening programming over the seven day event.
The Charcoal Publishing Prize
At the end of the event, one grand prize winner will be awarded the Charcoal Publishing Prize. The winning project will be published and distributed worldwide by Charcoal Book Club, the first book-of-the-month club dedicated exclusively to photobooks.
