Los Angeles Center of Photography
The Los Angeles Center of Photography Boys and Girls Club Photo Program, designed by Julia Dean, is currently partnered with ten Boys and Girls Clubs in Los Angeles County. The program is set up to provide a great time while learning the skills of Street Photography: photographing candids, perceiving decisive moments, how to approach a subject for a portrait, seeing the light. Hear from our featured middle-school students who have learned the skills of Street Photography as a way to know their world, and the world around them, better.
ORGANIZATION BIO
