Iris Lecture Series at the Annenberg Space for Photography

Th Annenberg Space For Photography made its debut earlier this year. It describes itself as "An entirely new cultural destination dedicated to exhibiting both digital and print photography in an intimate environment." I couldn't have explained it better myself. The Annenberg recently reopened earlier this week with their exhibit Pictures of the Year International. The exhibit features some of the top photojournalistic images from around the globe. It will be on display until November 1.

In addition to their exhibits, the Annenberg will feature an (almost) weekly series of Lectures by world renowned photographers. The Series is entitled The Iris Lecture Series. Most of the lectures will take place on Thursday evenings at 6:30. All lectures are free but registration is required!
