Philm Community is a creative network based in New Mexico that brings together photographers, filmmakers, models, actors, designers, musicians, small businesses, and artists of all kinds. Founded in 2020, the community was created to make collaboration more accessible, encourage creative growth, and help local creatives build meaningful connections.

Through meetups, workshops, networking events, group shoots, creative challenges, and community projects, Philm Community provides opportunities for creatives at every experience level to learn, create, and support one another. Whether you're picking up a camera for the first time or working professionally in your field, there's a place for you here.

Our goal is simple: create opportunities, foster collaboration, and help New Mexico's creative community thrive.

Philm Magazine is the publishing branch of Philm Community. Founded in 2021, the magazine serves as a platform to showcase the work of photographers, filmmakers, models, actors, designers, musicians, and artists from across New Mexico and beyond.

Each issue features creative projects, editorials, interviews, visual storytelling, and community submissions. The magazine exists to celebrate local talent, provide publication opportunities, and give creatives a space to share their work with a wider audience.

Submissions are open to both emerging and established creatives, with each issue centered around a unique theme that encourages artistic interpretation and collaboration.

Philm Community and Philm Magazine are two parts of the same mission.

The community creates opportunities for people to connect, collaborate, learn, and create. The magazine provides a platform to showcase that work and highlight the people behind it.

Revenue generated through magazine sales, advertising, sponsorships, and community events is reinvested directly back into Philm Community. These funds help support meetups, workshops, networking events, educational resources, publication opportunities, creative projects, and future community initiatives.

By participating in the community, attending events, submitting work, purchasing a magazine, or supporting our projects, you're helping create more opportunities for local creatives.

Together, we're building a stronger, more connected creative community—one collaboration at a time.
