Real world Mentorship for Emerging PhotographersThe Bridge is an intensive 16-week development program, created by ASMP NY and BKC, designed to confront the immediate need for education, support and mentorship for young people entering the field of professional photography.
Mission Statement
Right now there are extraordinary young artists with innovative work and unique stories to tell who may never get an opportunity to do so. Many people, especially groups that have been historically left out of the world of photography, do not have the time, money, or connections necessary to launch and sustain a career in the arts. We are here to bridge that gap. Our vision is tostrengthen not just the young creative entering the job market but the health of the industry as a whole by building access to real-world tools and opportunities.
