Cleveland Print Room
Website
In the Cleveland Print Room's Factory Fellowship, young artists develop individual creative voice while making new photography. Mentors offer one-on-one support while going on photo shoots, discussing the process and sharing inspiration. This community of young artists and mentors meets in person at the Print Room, via Zoom, and through an online photo-sharing platform.

Young artists receive a $100 stipend for their dedication during the 8-week Factory Fellowship, which is offered spring, summer and fall. Thank you to the Cleveland Foundation for their support of our Arts Mastery Teen Institute.

About
Report
Cleveland Print Room advances the art and appreciation of the photographic image in all its forms by providing affordable access to a community darkroom and workspace, gallery exhibition, educational programs and collaborative outreach.
In 2005 we noticed a troubling trend, many high schools, arts centers and universities/colleges were actively downsizing and decommissioning their darkroom facilities.
It was during this time period that Polaroid ceased making their groundbreaking film and the exceptionally stunning Kodachrome film was discontinued.
Team
Report
Visual artist Shari Wilkins created the Cleveland Print Room in 2013 as an intervention that is part of her social practice.
Drawing on a background in social work and the music business, her art is often issue-based and place-based.
She seeks to affect social change through personal work that collaborates with community.
Wilkins' work is in many private collections nationally and in the United Kingdom, with work also held in the public collection of the Cleveland Public Library.
Kerry Davis is the picture of an "out loud" individual.
