Photography Auction LACP: 4th Annual Fundraising Gala

4th Annual Fundraising Gala

On Saturday, April 13, 6-9:30 pm, the Los Angeles Center of Photography (LACP), a 501(c)3 charitable organization, is hosting their Annual Fundraising Gala at Quixote Studios in West Hollywood.

The organization is celebrating its 20th anniversary, formerly created as The Julia Dean Photo Workshops and founded in 1999 by Julia Dean, LACP’s Executive Director.

LACP is proud to honor portrait, entertainment and advertising photographer Art Streiber for his years of continued excellence and his commitment to the photographic community. Multi-award-winning actress, author, and activist Jamie Lee Curtis will present the honor.

The Center is seeking to raise $250,000 to support its programming as well as its outreach efforts with the Boys & Girls Clubs in and around Los Angeles and the Spark Program. Currently, LACP teaches photography to over 100 Los Angeles children through its Boys & Girls Club after-school program.

Further, LACP hopes to move into a new space that will serve as a true state-of-the-art center for the photographic community with more classrooms, a dedicated gallery space, library, café, traditional darkroom and an expanded digital lab.

Festivities on April 13 will include cocktails, appetizers, desserts, music and more. The evening will feature silent auction items, as well as an auction of photographs from award-winning photographers with proceeds benefiting LACP. Images by Art Streiber, Nick Brandt, Fran Forman, Susan Burnstine, Aline Smithson, Mitch Dobrowner, Julia Dean and many more are now open for bidding on Artsy Auctions.
