The PhotoPlus show has been “downgraded” and renamed :(

Sad news. The NYC Photoplus show has been somehow downgraded:
- It is now called “Create NYC” and is now more focused on workshops an photowalks….Price $150!
- It will be no more held in the big Javitts Center. The new place is the much smaller Duggal greenhouse
Sign of times folks :(
