The Tim Hetherington Trust continues Tim’s mission to inquire more deeply and to communicate more effectively by showcasing similarly inspirational work by today’s generation of visual storytellers. To this end, the Visionary Award identifies journalists and artists breaking new ground in diverse visual disciplines. We’re very proud to hosting this event in memory of Tim which will allow intimate questioning with these extraordinary people – followed by more casual discussion in the Frontline bar.
