Gilbert, Ariz. – Aug. 26, 2011 – Art Intersection announces the opening of its new Photography Center in the Gilbert Heritage District. This one of a kind facility in Arizona, and one of only a few in the country, provides access to digital and traditional photographic facilities. The newly completed workspace completes the vision for Art Intersection by becoming an educational hub for photographers and artists of all levels to learn, create and exhibit.

The new facility encompasses darkrooms for black and white printing, film developing, alternative process printing, a digital lab with workstations, large format printers and film scanners, and a classroom with areas for critiques and artist meetings.

A public open house on Saturday, Sep. 17, from 10am-2pm and 7pm-10pm includes tours and information about this brand new, unique facility. Visitors can explore the space by joining the staff on guided tours to learn about the facilities and membership benefits, and to enroll in upcoming workshops and classes.

Mary Virginia Swanson, author and educator said, “The addition of The Photography Center to Art Intersection is a natural extension of its public programming.  The Phoenix metropolitan area now has a first-class facility with exceptional educational offerings that rivals university programs.”  

In addition to scheduled workshops and classes, the dark rooms and digital lab space may be reserved on an hourly basis, and open lab hours are available for students enrolled in classes allowing all levels to work independently.
