A Few Comments from ICP TAs

Huguette Ampudia

Being a TA is an experience I would recommend to any alumni because you can be part of classes you may not have been able to take during your time there. ICP is like a photo family, and everyone is passionate about photography and art. There are great connections and opportunities for networking, developing friendships, and meeting new people. For me it has been very rewarding.

Sara Adriani

I started as a TA in the fall of 2021 for a weekend workshop class. I became a TA as a way to give back to the students that are currently at ICP. I had wonderful TA's when I studied there and it really made my time at ICP so special.

Freek Dirkx

I moved from Switzerland to NYC four and a half years ago. Being a TA connected me to the photography community in NYC. My favorite part is that I’m part of a community of highly talented and inspirational creatives. I’ve met so many wonderful people and had many amazing experiences, and now I have my own photo studio on Union Square. Signing up as a TA was the best decision I ever made. You invest some hours and the reward is priceless.
