Youth in Focus

Amplifying teen voice through photography and arts education

 

 

Youth in Focus provides after-school, summer, and partner programs of Digital and Darkroom photography for teens aged 13-19 furthest from educational justice. Our program focuses on Social and Emotional Learning, 21st century skill development, and courage and risk taking through art. We offer pay-what-you can tuition and free bus passes to make our program accessible to all.

Alone we can do so little. Together we can do so much. Community is a coming together of people, ideas, and culture to form a thriving network and support system. This is the community we are building with YOUR help.
