Hello!

I have just been to New Orleans where I photographed the Jazz and Heritage festival and got the offer to hold an exhibition in LA.

I would now like to return to the US to hold several exhibitions over approx 3-4 months.

Does a visa exist that would allow me to exhibit my photographs including selling some to potential buyers? Or would the latter not be allowed at all?

I have a full time job here which I would take a break from and run my photography business part time at the moment.

I would appreciate any advise.

Thanks in advance!

From what I recall, the B1/B2 covers this type of work, though you might only be able to take orders for work and then sell abroad. I am not sure, but you can look at B2 specifics for a start. The list of acceptable activities has been posted here before.

B1 to exhibit only.
