The BIC HQ is a hub for Black creativity.

The space is free for Black artists, and welcomes all.

Non-Black participants who want to utilize the studio

space and darkroom will be subject to a visitor fee.

We want the space to be a place where young

people come and feel like they can hang out after

school, ask questions about art, photography and

learn about how to make a career out of their

passions.

Black Image Center is a collective based non

profit 501c3 founded by a group of young Black

Photographers in Los Angeles. We aim to cultivate

imagination through photography and economically

empower Black storytellers and image makers.

BIC lives online and offline. We encourage our young

friends to pick up cameras and we get our grown friends

jobs. We serve as a hub of resources and as a network

of economic empowerment for the Black creative

community. We are all perpetually changing.

Water us and watch us bloom.
