The Center for Creative Photography was co-founded in 1975 by then University President John Schaefer and Ansel Adams, and its initial collection contained the archives of five photographers—Adams, Wynn Bullock, Harry Callahan, Aaron Siskind, and Frederick Sommer. The collection has grown to include 270 archival collections, including well-known 20th-century North American photographers Lola Álvarez Bravo, W. Eugene Smith, Edward Weston, David Hume Kennerly, Louise Dahl-Wolfe, Richard Avedon, and Garry Winogrand. Students can attend exhibitions for free and access the CCP’s library, archives and digital resources for their coursework and research. Plus, students can engage with experts via CCP’s many public programs.
