Between You & Me: The Camera Teaches, The Photograph Speaks
Join us for the opening reception on April 10th from 6-9:30pm
For over two decades, Denise Keim has been a guide, mentor, and witness—teaching the art of photography while fostering a community of visual storytellers. Now, in a rare shift, the teacher steps forward to share her own journey, revealing a lifelong conversation between maker and medium, student and teacher.
Through the magic of the darkroom, these photographs are not just images but lessons—records of time, trust, and exchange. As one student, Greg Mizak wrote, "We see now through her eyes, and we have learned through her learning." Here, the act of making photographs becomes an act of understanding, where each image is an invitation to listen more closely.
Exhibition Dates: April 7 – June 17
Join us in exploring the energy that flows between photographer, subject, and viewer—the unseen dialogue that photography makes visible.
