New Mexico’s Emerging Photographers

New Mexico is known for its rich photographic history and has a thriving contemporary photographic community. With the generous support of the Chicago Woodman Foundation, The New Mexico Museum of Art has paired select emerging photographers with Gallup Arts and  the University of New Mexico- Gallup, San Juan College, and New Mexico State University for “Master Class” sessions. In these visits the photographers have shared their work with current students and community members and shared their observations about what it takes to make a career in photography.

Join us in St. Francis Auditorium for a free talk about what the students learned from the photographers, and what the photographers leaned from their experience.
