Finding Our Voices is the second pop up art exhibit sponsored by the Simi Valley Cultural Arts Center as part of their Art in Our Community outreach program. This group exhibit will feature artworks made by current and recently graduated students of the Moorpark Community College's Photography Department. Students are using the medium of photography to find their voice as they navigate private and public life in this exploration of self, time, and place.

The Photography Department at Moorpark Community College is a vibrant space for students to explore subject matter/concepts, acquire technical proficiency, develop critical thinking skills and achieve visual literacy. The photography program at Moorpark Community College teaches the technical and aesthetic principles of fine art and/or commercial photography as students learn to work in a traditional black and white laboratory as well as with new digital software and equipment.

The Moorpark College photography program focuses on the student. Their intention is to provide the best possible technical foundation and the richest aesthetic experience. They work to give students the best opportunities and education in fine art, documentary and commercial photography. They provide highly qualified staff and a supportive environment to facilitate deeper learning. The artworks displayed in Finding Our Voices showcase the vast skills and techniques that are being explored within the photography department.

The Simi Valley Cultural Arts Center is proud to partner with the Simi Valley Public Library and Moorpark Community College in bringing this exciting Pop Up Art Exhibit to the Simi Valley community.

Finding Our Voices: A Pop Up Art Exhibit will run from June 3 through July 31, 2023 at the Simi Valley Public Library with a special Gallery Opening Reception and Artist Talk held on June 29th from 5 PM to 7 PM.
