Vision-21 returns to Christchurch PSNZ and the Convention Organising Committee are delighted to announce that Vision-21will be held in Otautahi Christchurch once again. Vision-21will be an exciting event for photographers of all levels, whether you are a seasoned professional photographer or you just picked up your first DSLR camera this year. The annual PSNZ national convention aims to inspire and help attendees discover what truly drives them to capture the world.
During the general registrations phase, you will be asked “In the event of a COVID Level 2 Convention Plan being activated will you elect to attend?”. Registrations will open on 17 January 2021. In early February, the maximum allowable number of those who have elected to attend at COVID Level 2 will be asked to submit their Level 2 workshop request. During February and March, planning for both a full convention and a restricted numbers convention adhering to Level 2 restrictions will continue.
COVID Response Plan 2020 Vision was originally due to be held in April 2020, however the organisers had to make the call to cancel the convention due to the looming COVID-19 crisis. With ongoing uncertainty the Convention Organising Committee has decided to proceed with an approach that hopes to deliver a successful event at either COVID Alert Level 1 or Alert Level 2. The updated registration phase will be as follows: 16
At any point prior to 5 April, should the government change the COVID level status or should conditions indicate that change is likely, then the PSNZ Council in conjunction with the Convention Organising Committee may elect to move to Level 2 plans. Refunds will be processed for any Level 1 only convention registrations. After 5 April it will not be possible to implement COVID Level 2 plans and a change in COVID status will result in the cancellation of the convention. Refunds will be processed for all registrations.
