In 1975, Lewis was the founding director of the Bury Metropolitan Arts Association which operates the Met.[citation needed]

Lewis also founded and was the first director of Cornerhouse, an arts centre in Manchester, England.[1]

Lewis was made an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society in 2004[2] and was awarded the Society’s inaugural RPS Award for Outstanding Service to Photography in 2009.[3] In 2012, the Kraszna-Krausz Foundation presented him with an award for Outstanding Contribution to Photography Publishing.[1][4][5]

Lewis has acted as a jury member for several major competitions and as a portfolio reviewer at international photography events including Fotofest and Review Santa Fe (both USA), Lodz Festival (Poland) and PHotoEspaña (Spain). He was a ‘Master’ for the 2009, 2010 and 2011 World Press Photo Joop Swart Masterclasses.[6] Along with his own book, Publishing Photography (1992), he writes occasional texts on photography and has curated exhibitions including a survey show of the British magazine Picture Post for the 2010 Atri Festival.[7]
