Westchester Youth Alliance proudly presents an immersive two-week summer photography workshop inspired by civil rights photographer Gordon Parks. This transformative program builds bridges across diverse communities of faith, race, and identity while teaching practical skills in photography and visual storytelling.

Students will learn to use the camera as a powerful tool for expression, observation, and social change—just as Gordon Parks did throughout his groundbreaking career. Through hands-on instruction and creative exploration, participants will develop technical photography skills while examining important social issues that matter to them most.

By the end of the workshop, each student will create a compelling photo essay featuring three photographs that tell a story focused on a social issue or idea they feel passionate about. These works will be presented during a special showcase at the conclusion of the workshop.
