Photo Global
 
I wanted to make a new start by taking a risk, to leave behind my trusted surroundings in my home country and to meet other international artists while studying in New York City! The Photo Global certificate program offers a creative and critical environment, which fosters personal growth while developing individual projects. It is both supportive and culturally diverse, where students can share their knowledge with each other. Website.
