From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

The PDN PhotoPlus International Conference + Expo ("PhotoPlus") is an annual event held since 1983[1] at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York. Designed for professional and advanced amateur photographers, Photoplus displays recent advances in photography through a variety of exhibitions as well as photography and digital design seminars.[2]

The 2020[3] and 2021 editions were canceled due to COVID.[4] In 2022, after the 2020 closure of parent magazine Photo District News, the event rebranded as CreateNYC powered by PhotoPlus and moved to the Duggal Greenhouse in Brooklyn.[5]
