Arts Paper
As the editorially independent arm of The Arts Council of Greater New Haven, the Arts Paper seeks to celebrate, explore, and investigate the fine, visual, performing and culinary arts in and around New Haven.
The following photoessay comes from Youth Arts Journalism Initiative (YAJI) alum Emma MartinMooney, who graduated from Wilbur Cross High School last year. For the first time this year, a generous grant from the City of New Haven's Department of Arts, Culture & Tourism allowed the Arts Council to offer a series of fall mentorship classes, including a six-week photo class with Chris Randall. Here is Emma's final project from that class, using the framing devices that she learned in New Haven while on a trip abroad.

As Christopher Rodriguez peered through his viewfinder, he held all of Broadway Island in the palm of his hand. He could capture the magic of small moments, from the sign-adorned light posts to the strolling pedestrians. With a click of the shutter, he froze moments in time, the afternoon sun bringing each photo to life.
