Opening reception for We The People

An opening reception for We The People: The Citizens of NYCHA in Pictures + Words took place Saturday, February 23, at the Gordon A. Parks Gallery, on the ground floor of the School of New Resources John Cardinal O’Connor Campus in the South Bronx.

The exhibit, a collaboration between journalist Rico Washington and photographer Shino Yanagawa that, via interviews and images, seeks to debunk the myths around the people who live in the New York City Housing Authority’s buildings.
