Vision and Practice
The Vision and Practice program gives schools from around the country the unique opportunity to provide students from a range of academic disciplines an educational experience that will expand their perception of the visual world and solidify their voices as visual authors.
If your students are curious, focused, and open to being challenged, we welcome them to come spend an intensive semester in New York City with the International Center of Photography. Our experienced faculty, composed of photographers, artists, writers, filmmakers, and curators, will be their guides on this immersive journey focused on the creation, understanding, and dialogue of images. A curriculum designed to support and enhance individual creative practice through theory, technique, and discipline will provide the framework. Your students’ passion and creative vision will provide the catalysts for success.
For more information, please contact Darin Mickey, chair of the Vision and Practice program, at dmickey@icp.org.
