BCYF Snap Shot Photography Program

This summer employment program introduces participants to all aspects of photography. Led by a professional photographer the program includes:

• opportunities to conduct “photo shoots” around Boston
• visit museums and art galleries
• dedicated computer lab time to edit digital photos
• weekly personal development workshops led by John Hancock, and
• the responsibility of serving as a “staff photographer” at various programs and events for Boston Centers for Youth & Families.

 

Learn more about participating in Snap Shot on the BCYF website.

 

The Snap Shot Photography Program is made possible via a partnership between Boston Centers for Youth & Families, The Foundation for BCYF, and the John Hancock’s MLK Summer Scholars Program, which allows nonprofit agencies to employ teens throughout the summer.

The MLK Summer Scholars Program enables students to have on-the-job training in community organizations. They also take part in weekly life skills training workshops managed and developed by the Boston Globe Foundation and Boston Cares.

MLK Summer Scholars gain employment training as well as educational skills to assist in becoming community leaders of the future.
