Quality Photography Classes in Manhattan:

PhotoManhattan's curriculums have been tested and improved over the years to provide solid and dynamic training to thousands of students of all levels.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):


- Are your classes only for digital cameras?
For most of PhotoManhattan's photography classes, both film and digital camera users are welcome! However, for Photography in Automatic Mode all students must have a digital camera. 

- What type of camera do I have to have for a course?
PhotoManhattan strongly recommends, although it is not required, that all students have an SLR (Single Lens Reflex) or a DSLR camera, with a Manual Function/Mode. If you have a Point-&-Shoot digital model, please make sure you have a Manual Function/Mode to which you can control your aperture, shutter speed and ISO/ASA.

Transart Institute, Manhattan
Courses / Programs
Founded in 2004 by two artists, the Transart Institute in Manhattan, NYC is an art school that provides a contemporary learning experience without grades or pre-formatted curricula. We offer an international low-residency Master of Fine Arts (MFA) and a practice-based PhD program for working artists in a highly individualized format.

Our students are generally working professionals with wider world experience than students from a serial undergraduate/graduate course of study. The low-residency approach, with intensive residencies, gives our students the opportunity for deeper academic experiences than within a traditional full residency context.

The innovative MFA program consists of three intensive summer residencies with lectures, workshops, critiques, seminars, performances and exhibitions in Europe and two fall residencies in New York. In the four semesters between residencies, students create their own course of study realizing individual art and research projects with the support of faculty and self-chosen artist mentors wherever they work and live.

The MPhil/PhD is a three to four year full time degree program with an average work commitment of 30 hours per week. The Degree is only offered for practice-based research (creative work) accompanied by a written thesis that contextualizes the work.

We have a teacher for every five or six students so the student receives a lot of attention. If a student were to complete all of the many projects we have developed, he/she would end up with a complete background of classical jewelry techniques.
