The International Center of Photography (ICP) is the world’s leading institution dedicated to photography and visual culture. Through our exhibitions, education, public programs, and community outreach, we offer an open forum for dialogue about the power of the image. Since our founding in 1974, we have presented hundreds of exhibitions and offered thousands of online and onsite classes, providing instruction at every level.

Our new integrated center on the Lower East Side reunites our school and museum in one space becoming a vibrant cultural center.

ICP seeks to introduce our photography and media students to a broad range of professional perspectives including practicing photographers, artists, curators, theorists, writers, and cultural catalysts. Resources available to teachers and classes include the museum’s active exhibition and programming, the school’s state‑of‑the‑art analog and digital facilities, our collection and archive of 200,000 images, and a library of 20,000 photo photobooks.
