We are thrilled for this year's installment of our annual student exhibition, "FotoFinish 2026: Amass. Move. Reflect." The show features over 300 photo-based artworks and creative writings by more than 270 students that illustrate the intricacies of the human experience through food, relationships, and place.

Complementing these visual explorations are love letters to Houston, observations on the significance of play, and other compelling reflections. The photography and writing in "Amass. Move. Reflect." illuminate student perspectives that pause, observe, and reflect on ordinary moments to gain a better understanding of self and one’s place in the world.

The walk will conclude with a kid-friendly Biodiversity Pod workshop.
