’11 Alum Brenda Bancel Teaches Take 5′s Inaugural Photography Program

Posted on May 18, 2012 by nesopblog

2011 graduate, Brenda Bancel spent the last year teaching photography to middle school students from Dorchester’s Epiphany School as part of the Take 5 program. These students will have their work exhibited at the PRC from May 22nd – 26th. Come out and support these very talented, young photographers! Click here for more information: http://conta.cc/K1CAQx

“I chose to work with the Epiphany School because I have been very moved by their work with kids in the Boston area. Their efforts are tireless. Their board and their teachers are unrivaled. They have work to do and they do it. These kids come from difficult circumstances and almost all have recently witnessed violence. I’m so proud of the Take 5 kids. They opened themselves up to me through their lenses. They became more self-aware through journal writing and photography exercises on self-expression. And in the process it was these kids who taught me a lot.” - Brenda Bancel
