The Facing Seaside III Exhibition

Photography is a vital tool in telling the story of a person or place, helping others better understand an individual's account of cultural practices, experiences, and traditions. The "Facing Seaside" project and exhibition exemplify how, through photography, the Weston Collective (TWC) promotes inclusion. "Facing Seaside III" demonstrates how photography can overcome barriers, showing that a photograph is made from someone's inner intention and thought, not dictated by their background.
“Facing Seaside” is an ongoing project at TWC that brings together local businesses, community members, artists, and students through photography and visual storytelling. The exhibition of photographs culminates a collaborative project with elementary school students, their teachers, and local businesses in Seaside. The artworks in the show will include digital photos by fifth and sixth-grade students in TWC's after-school program at the Martin Luther King Jr. School of the Arts as well as 8th grade students of the Dual Language Academy in Seaside.
