Teen Academy Imagemakers

2017 Student Exhibition

ICP’s Teen Academy offers a range of opportunities for teenagers to develop their knowledge of photography and storytelling. Courses include black-and-white and color darkroom, digital, and new media instruction, as well as the Imagemakers yearlong advanced program.

Teen Academy Imagemakers enables motivated high school juniors and seniors to advance their photography, writing, and public speaking skills while developing an awareness of the creative and professional possibilities in the field. This weekly after-school program provides teen photographers with guidance from some of New York’s best teaching artists, field trips to museums, galleries, and studios, college-prep workshops, pre-professional assignments, mentorship opportunities in the field, and full access to ICP’s facilities. This program is designed for students who are interested in pursuing photography in college and/or as a career. By the end of the year, students have created an extensive portfolio, including an artist’s statement and résumé. A selection of their best work is featured in this gallery exhibition.
