Harlem Photo League is made possible through the generous support of the H.T. Ewald Foundation, the Phillip and Edith Leonian Foundation and the William Talbott Hillman Foundation.

This workshop invites students to explore Harlem’s rich history and dynamic present through the lens of both digital and analog photography, using the neighborhood as a starting point to delve into their own personal histories, important places, and the people who have shaped their perspectives. Focused on portraiture and storytelling, students will create a portfolio that reflects the intersection of Harlem’s cultural landscape and their own experiences. Emphasizing film photography, the course will offer eco-processing techniques and darkroom printing/processing, while incorporating audio documentation to add context to the visual work.

More advanced students will use still photography to elevate their video practice, experimenting with moving-image portraits that draw on the technical and narrative skills developed through still photography. By the end of the workshop, students will have deepened their connection to both their personal stories and Harlem’s cultural narrative, creating a final project that blends still and moving images to tell compelling, intimate stories.
