Charlotte's home for photography! They have wonderful classes and workshops, a gallery, and you can even rent studio space from them!

I've been a huge fan of this place for the last 15 years. Amazing exhibits by real heavy hitters national and international--but they still make room for an annual show of their members' work (which contains a lot of great local work) and the occasional short run student show. As a photographer, I've really enjoyed the classes and workshops. They have a wide variety--from beginner classes with basic dSLR to traditional darkroom and alt processing.

Went here for a studio shoot. Pretty professional and I've heard this art shows are well put together!

I took one of the Light Factory's classes, and it was well worth it. The level of instruction was top notch and I got more out of this class than I have from others around town. Thanks to the Light Factory, and I look forward to the next class.

Great stuff every city should have a community darkroom

My 2nd visit in about 2 years. I had never been to a photo art show, until this, so cannot compare. It was very interesting.

Great space and even better people! Can't wait to take a class here. They also have wonderful photography exhibitions.

What a waste of effort. This place keeps having to move from lack of support. Duh!! Get a clue! Could it be....the art they choose to exhibit?! Well yeah! They need to get out of their smugness and get serious. I know a great art collector who could curate fantastic photo exhibits. But...he's not in their smug circle.

Great place, learned a lot about photography today. Thanks Carey.
