Photography and Imaging

“I grew up in a low income area, where photography and art school were not things we talked about, so I’m thankful for this positive community at Las Fotos Project that helped me figure out my path,” says Gomez, who started at ArtCenter as a Photography student in Fall 2022 “Las Fotos was not only my pathway to ArtCenter, but it really gave me the skills I needed to not feel fully lost in school. ”

Las Fotos Project is one of several L.A. community arts organizations, including Heart of Los Angeles, Greetings from South-Central L.A., Inner-City Arts and Ryman Arts, that Admissions has partnered with on portfolio reviews and skill-building workshops.
