The View from Here: Accessing Art Through Photography
“The View from Here” is a photography program for rising eleventh- and twelfth-grade students and first-year students at public universities or community colleges. The program seeks to deepen young people’s engagement with visual art by exposing them to the history, materials, and practice of photography. Students learn the essential principles of taking and composing their own photographs using a smartphone or personal digital device. Working with curators, museum staff, Yale faculty, and photographers, students gain access to unique workshops, experiences, and mentorships. The program culminates in an exhibition of students’ work.
Applications for the 2023–24 program are now closed. Please check back next year.
