Evan Walsh (b. 1995) is a PA- and NYC-based photographer, writer, curator, facilitator, and producer originally from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. 

As a producer, Evan has spent his early career in pursuit of supporting visionary programs that disrupt the status quo, weaving emerging creatives who are imagining radical futures, and cultivating projects that dream beyond our broken systems. As Exhibitions Manager for artist collective For Freedoms from 2017–2020, Evan coordinated the team behind the 50 State Initiative, served as production coordinator for Emily Shur and Hank Willis Thomas’ Four Freedoms prints (Cover, Time Magazine, Nov 2018), and managed operations and curatorial for For Freedoms Congress. Now as Program Manager for the Guild of Future Architects, Evan facilitates spaces of imagining bolder futures, overcoming transgressive societal forces, and awakening of the inner spiritual self. Beyond producing and curation, Evan facilitates salons, support groups, convenings, writers’ summits, and other containers for community, cultural abundance, and connection — spaces where emerging artists can find the solidarity and support it takes to realize their truest desires.

Over the past five years, Evan has produced over 50 special projects and programs with MoMA, Sundance Film Festival / New Frontier, The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, MOCA LA, Magnum Foundation, The ICP Museum, Guardian US, Planned Parenthood, Pop Culture Collaborative, Bennett College, The Doris Duke Foundation for Islamic Art, The Japanese American National Museum, The Armory Show, Federal Hall, The Houston Center for Photography, The Currier Museum of Art, UNTITLED Art Fair, The Betsy Hotel, 21C Hotels, Photoville, EXPO Chicago, Lightwork / Contact Sheet, Lenscratch, Kickstarter, and Mountainfilm, and has lectured for NYU Gallatin, Monument Lab, and Aperture Foundation. Key projects include the New/s Initiative; Magnum Foundation’s Counter Histories; Traveling the Interstitium which premiered at Sundance New Frontier 2021; It Is A Miracle That We Are Standing Here which showed at the ICP Museum, Mountainfilm, and ArtBasel Miami / Betsy Hotel; and Be Strong and Do Not Betray Your Soul in collaboration with Light Work & UVM’s Fleming Museum.
