[4] Each year, the Fotomuseum Den Haag organizes approximately six exhibitions from a range of periods, disciplines and genres of photographic history.

[5] Exhibitions alternate contemporary photographers, such as Desiree Dolron,[6][7] Loretta Lux[8] and Gregory Crewdson,[9] with overviews of historic photographers such as Emmy Andriesse,[10] Edward S. Curtis and Leonard Freed.

[11] Underexposed and unknown reputations and oeuvres are prominently presented, such as those of Gerard Fieret,[12] Willem van de Poll[13] and the Dutch years of fashion photographer Erwin Blumenfeld.

[14] Socially relevant photo projects by contemporary photographers are regularly shown, such as the series on the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia by Friso Keuris,[15] the sexual relations between older people by Marrie Bot[16] or the primeval landscapes threatened by man by Anja de Jong.

[17] From 2006 to 2015, the museum was associated with an annual photo prize: the Silver Camera for press photography in the Netherlands.
