• Chef April Bloomfield has promoted sustainability and resourcefulness in fine restaurants from London to Berkeley's Chez Panisse and, of course, her four restaurants in New York City. Levi's Photo Workshop will collaborate with Bloomfield and The Breslin at the Ace Hotel by celebrating her culinary craft with three unique photography-based collaborations.
• The Impossible Project has embarked on the most exciting analog adventure of all time:. they are saving analog Instant Photography from extinction by inventing and manufacturing entirely new and creative instant films for vintage Polaroid cameras at the former Polaroid factory in Enschede, Netherlands,
• With a distinguished heritage of craftsmanship and precise mechanics, Leica is in a class of its own. In addition to a unique installation of film camera models dating back to the 1920s, like the Compur and the limited-edition Gold M4-2 (made to commemorate the inventor of the Leica camera), a range of digital cameras including the S-System will be available for rent in the Workshop Studio.
The Levi's brand has historically committed itself to values of community, craftsmanship and social responsibility. In this tradition, the Levi's Photo Workshop, will offer twice-a-week educational programming to the public in the form of lectures and workshops. The Levi's brand has also built strong ties with four local non-profit organizations that exemplify the spirit of the Workshop: The Five Boroughs Foundation of Photography, Hetrick-Martin Institute / Harvey Milk High School, Lower Manhattan Cultural Council and Edible Schoolyard New York.
"We're excited to be here in New York, working with some of the most inspiring people in this city," said Joshua Katz, head of Collaborations, Partnerships & Creative Concepts for the Levi's brand. "This program is about sharing resources and engaging the public, and photography is a great way to do that while promoting the values that are intrinsic to the Levi's brand."
