The International Center of Photography in New York City was awarded a $215,784 Project Grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services' National Leadership Grants program to reinstate and expand its library-based public programs. Under the one-year award running from November 2021 through October 2022, the Center will deliver both in-person and virtual public programs focused on photography at its William Randolph Hearst Library location. Programming will include book events, film screenings, a community day, and exhibition-based activities. To support this expanded hybrid programming model, the Center will hire a part-time videographer/audiovisual producer and a public programs coordinator. The goal is to continue providing accessible resources and content to the community through a mix of in-person and ongoing virtual options.
