Contact Photo operates as a 501c3 non-profit dedicated to teaching, showcasing, and promoting underrepresented photographers throughout New York City and around the world. Our goal is to create a diverse and inclusive space to promote the work of emerging photographers from disadvantaged socioeconomic communities by providing them with the training, resources, and opportunities to grow as artist.

We rely on external support to continue offering our services to the community. Your support helps us continue captivating and inspiring to artists throughout New York City and encourage a new generation to create.
