There, you can see a lot of exhibitions, starting with Grand Prix Fotofestiwal 2015 (including the awards ceremony!).

You can also take a look at pre-auction exhibition “Views. Landscape in Polish Photography” – imagine those photos on your house’s walls! But it’s not all – you have to check in the progremme.
