TODAY is your last chance to view Reflecting Voice

TODAY is your last chance to view Reflecting Voices!⁠⁠
⁠⁠
In photography, light that reflects off a subject is most often what the camera records to produce a photograph. Here the subject is diverse expressions of black identity. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
@alannaairitam creates images as a tribute to Black culture, inspired by elements of Dutch painting and the Harlem Renaissance. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
@narkitagoldstudio celebrates Black identity through the use of colorful backgrounds as vibrant and varied as the community in Denver.
⁠⁠
@rashodtaylorphoto documents the Black American experience in an intimate, personal study of his family. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
It has been an honor to spotlight each of these artists.⁠⁠

Why should a military veteran with a passion for photography apply to be part of our Veterans Workshop Series?⁠
⁠
We could tell you all the ways this unique program provides, or we could show you!

Featured here is 2018 alum Chuck Rasco, just one of many graduates who’ve had great success from participating in the program. Over the five-month long intensive course, Chuck advanced his photography skills and now has work hanging in the Colorado State Capital, a piece in our 2021 Hal Gould Award & Virtual Benefit Auction, and was recently contacted through his website to do a time-lapse video for a movie.
⁠
CPAC is now accepting applications for the 2021 Veterans Workshop Series (July 2021 - January 2022). We strongly encourage those to apply before May 25th.
