Community Outreach and Projects in Schools
Each year The Light Factory partners with schools all over North and South Carolina to promote media literacy and self-expression to students using photography and filmmaking. These programs are offered for free or at a low cost, due in part to your support. Invest in Outreach to continue this exceptional programming and make an impact on hundreds of students.
