This exhibition highlights the work of thirteen student-photographers from Greater New Haven who participated in “The View from Here: Accessing Art Through Photography” in fall 2024 and winter 2025. Now in its fourth year, the program brings together young people to learn about the history, materials, and practice of photography through direct engagement with museum educators, curators, museum staff, faculty, and photography professionals.
In addition to this online presentation, the students’ work is on view in the High Street windows of the museum from March 17 through October 5, 2025. A complementary installation will be on view at Yale Schwarzman Center from April 7, 2025, through January 4, 2026.
