Fotopub workshops
Fotopub can cater up to 80 students who work with 10 to 15 internationally acclaimed tutors. The programme consists of 6 days of intensive educational process at different levels: individual work, guided work on stories, level lectures in technique and composition, lectures in history of photography, mentor consultations, studio and field photography. Each participant produces her or his personal photo-story or a multimedia story under the guidance of a chosen tutor. The results of the workshops are presented in a final group presentation.
The workshops are often set in an informal environment – in parks, local cafés, and pubs – where tutors, students, local community members, and visitors mingle, looking for less obvious stories. The workshop participants work on selected themes such as journalistic photography, aesthetics vs. ethics, etc.
Past guest tutors have included Miguel Rosales, a fashion photographer from Paris; Evgen Bavčar, a Slovene conceptual photographer; Bjorn Steinz, a documentary photographer from Frankfurt; Jean Christoph Queto, an art photographer from New York; Marko Pršina, a natural science photographer; Bojan Brecelj, photo journalist; and Brane Kovič, a Slovene photography and art critic. The 6th edition strengthened the connections with the London College of Communication and questioned the dilemmas of documentary photography.
Tutors for workshops of the 9th edition included Ahmet Polat (Netherlands/Turkey), Abbie Trayler-Smith and Steve Forrest (both from Great Britain), Nataša Košmerl and Uroš Abram (both from Slovenia), and Pep Bonet (Spain), who worked with a master class of 6 participants with the theme of identity. Further themes of 2009 were the urn of Novo mesto, belief, social life, love, tribulation, and fishing. Further tutors of those workshops were some established Slovene photographers such as Borut Peterlin, Arne Hodalič, and Meta Krese to name just a few of them.

The initiative is conducted as a part of the European Cultural Heritage Days by the autonomous Community of Catalonia, which each year organises the International Heritage Photographic Experience (IHPE), which is supported by the Council of Europe.
