En Foco is a non-profit organization that nurtures and supports contemporary fine art and documentary photographers of diverse cultures, primarily U.S. residents of Latino, African and Asian Heritage, and Native Peoples of the Americas and the Pacific. Since it was founded in 1974, En Foco has been an outspoken leader and advocate for the equitable support and access to resources for photographers of color. It has a distinguished itself through its sustained commitment to providing its primary constituency and the communities they represent financial support, public programming, information services and cultural advocacy initiatives.
En Foco’s new Fellowship Program will award $1,000 to five photographers of color, as determined by a panel of photography professionals. In addition, the Fellowship Awardees will participate in a group exhibition in a New York City venue, as well as be published in Nueva Luz (printed and online editions).
