En Foco, Inc. is a non-profit that supports US-based photographers of African, Asian, Latino, Native American, and Pacific Islander heritage. Founded in 1974, En Foco makes the work of these artists visible to the art world, yet remains accessible to underserved communities. Through exhibitions, workshops, events, and publications, it provides professional recognition, honoraria, and assistance to photographers as they grow into different stages of their careers. The Nueva Luz Study Center (NLSC) makes our history accessible through the digital archives of all issues of the photographic journal since 1985. Exhibitions, programs, and commissions are underway that focus on artists and issues that have been introduced in Nueva Luz. For more information about En Foco, please visit www.enfoco.org.
Legacy Lab: Archive Edition draws from the En Foco archives and artworks developed through the Legacy Lab workshop series to examine how family photographs, personal histories, and creative practices transform into shared cultural memory, preserving and activating underrepresented histories.
