PolaCon 6: An Instant Film Convention


Harvest House

Grab your Polaroid cameras and join other photographers for the return of the world's first 3-day instant film photography convention. Mark your calendars for Sept. 24, 25 & 26 and start making plans for the return of PolaCon. For our 6th PolaCon in North Texas we will be back in person. But it's worth noting that nearly all our events, PolaWalks and meet-ups will be outdoors, including, of course, our 10th annual State Fair walk.

Things will officially* kick off for our 10th Annual Rain-or-Shine #PolaWalk at The State Fair of Texas on Friday, September 24.
Then, we'll return to the splendor of Downtown Denton on Sept. 25 and 26 for more than 20 instant photography-related events: PolaWalks, talks, demos, workshops and roundtables covering everything from an "Instant 101" for beginners and hands-on cyanotypes "for kids of all ages" demo to more advanced sessions like the ins-and-outs of a OneStep2 to the "Big Shot Shuffle" and from the new Polaroid Go (the smallest analog instant camera) up to to 4x5s and 8x10s and from cyanotypes and tintypes to emulsion transfers/lifts. Like past years, all events on Saturday and Sunday will be near the Downtown Square and "walkable" (within 0.9 miles).

Follow Instant Film Society on Facebook or Instagram for each days schedule.
