Light Work at Thirty-five: Reflections on Institution and Community Building
How One Institution Has Made A Huge Difference
I received the recent issue of Contact Sheet, the publication produced by Light Work that documents its programs, resident artists, and exhibitions. This particular issue, Number 147, takes note of the organization's extraordinary thirty-five year history. For those of you not familiar with the organization, Light Work is the Syracuse, NY based organization that has diligently served the photographic community for three and a half decades. It is, quite simply, the oldest continuously operating organization and institution of its kind.
