Print Study for All - Instructor

Instructor Survey

Hello! Print Study for All (PSFA) is an educational initiative dedicated to serving photography students and educators in culturally underserved areas nationwide. We produce and provide curated or thematic print boxes including work from celebrated artists and juried portfolios to be used in the classroom. As pedagogical tools, the portfolios will enable students to engage photographic prints through direct physical interaction.

You've received this email because you are a photo professor/instructor. Your feedback will help us better understand the educator and student demographics we seek to serve. Thank you!
