The Eddie Adams Workshop is the only tuition-free photojournalism seminar of its kind. One hundred participants selected solely on the merit of their pictures team up with top professional photographers and editors for a four-day gathering that includes assignments, portfolio reviews, panel discussions and presentations.

The all-volunteer faculty and staff, many of whom are alumni, are passionate about the mission and donate their time and expertise. The Workshop has an unparalleled history of nurturing talent, exchanging ideas and building relationships.

Students in the Bronx Junior Photo League (BJPL), the Bronx Documentary Center’s (BDC) free documentary storytelling and college success program for 6th through 12th grade students, have been documenting social justice issues and community-based stories since 2013. The BJPL–and the work the students make–is the heart of the BDC’s mission: to use community-based documentary practice and education to explore vital issues, stimulate critical thought, and drive social change. In March 2020, in response to the coronavirus pandemic, the BDC made the decision to suspend all programs and move to remote learning. Our students, who are used to working in a program based on the ability to go outside and photograph in the community, quickly learned to turn their lens to the vulnerable space of their private lives. They created visual and written explorations of their experiences during this time, using photography as a tool of reflection and connection with themselves, their families, and their communities. photoville.nyc/connection-and-reflection-during-covid-19/ Photoville 1:00:03 “The Power of Photographic Storytelling” presented with NYU Tisch Department of Photography and Imaging THE POWER OF PHOTOGRAPHIC STORYTELLING presented by Photoville with NYU Tisch Department of Photography and Imaging Photoville 2020 Talks On-demand recordings are made possible in partnership with PhotoWings with additional support by the Philip and Edith Leonian Foundation.
