Community Photo Access is a community based, art & photography center working in collaboration with local artists, regional organizations and other stakeholders who are actively involved in the Pioneer Valley creative arts community. Between June 4-11, we are sponsoring the exhibition Machakos-Through their Eyes. This fund-raising photography exhibit documents the lives of the children that live at the rescue center in Machakos, Kenya, and was a project conceived and organized by Abby Tuominen and Shira Kaufman, two Amherst Regional High School Seniors. The photographs were taken by the girls at the orphanage and gives us a glimpse of their daily lives. Ani Rivera, of CPA, has donated his time to organize the exhibition at Community Photo Access. Proceeds from sales of prints will go to the Machakos fund. Take a look under news for the press release that provides more information.
