Welcome!
We’re the Chicago Center for Photojournalism (CC4PJ), located in the vibrant Uptown neighborhood of Chicago.
Our vision is to elevate the importance of visual journalism, foster community engagement, and empower underrepresented voices to shape the narratives that shape our society. By embracing diversity, we aim to create a stronger, more inclusive field of photojournalism that accurately reflects the rich tapestry of human experiences.

We offer world class photojournalism, old school photo classes and fine art printing services.


FALL EXHIBITION

IN PROTEST: GLOBAL ACTIVISM offers an unfiltered exploration of the human spirit in moments of resistance. Featuring the work of over 50 photographers from our first open call, this exhibition presents a diverse collection of images capturing the raw intensity of protest movements worldwide.

October 12 – December 2, 2024
Opening Reception: October 17 | 6:30-9 PM



“The elements of a subject that speak to us are often scattered and can't be captured in one photo; we don't have the right to force them together, and to stage them would be cheating... which brings us to the need for photojournalism.”

Henri Cartier-Bresson
