The Photobook Club Collective is an active community of 80 photographers whose members are completely engaged and united in the process of publishing, self-publishing and crowdfunding their publications.
Founded by Tom Broadbent in 2016, this diverse group of image-makers has developed into a supportive, inclusive and encouraging environment with each member having an equal voice.
As Tom describes:
“Crowdfunding campaigns have succeeded and books have been published as a direct result of The Photobook Club Collective's generous community spirit, a unity unlike anything I have experienced in 20 years of professional photography.”
​
The collective regularly exhibits at photobook fairs, including BOP, Format, and Impressions, and has presented group projects and public programming across the UK. In 2022, the collective collaborated with the Royal Photographic Society on a year-long bookshop and talks programme.
