I enjoy stopping by this little museum. Right now they have some interesting artwork from local high school students as well as James Balog. I liked Balog's endangered species works, especially, "Man and Ape" as well as the Panda photo shoot. Follow me for more reviews!

Full disclosure, I’m an analog photographer who not only teaches and exhibits my personal work regularly, but still prints exclusively by hand, in a darkroom (across the country in NYC). And is a huge photo history nerd.

Thus, I always visit MoPA when I’m in town (was in the area after teaching a brief experimental photograms workshop in Escondido last week). So glad they’re still around (#filmisnotdead) ❤️🙏

Here are a couple unedited cell shots I took while there.

Nice floor flow. Wonderful experience
Great having the Sony World Photography Awards for the first time in the USA, and in this venue. Hoped for more promotion.

Beautiful pieces of art from all over the world of different subjects. Some were done during lockdown so that made the photographers look outside the box on how to take photos. And you can take photos of the mounted pictures.

A great photography museum. The Sony World Photo Awards were on display here when I visited but I can tell that this is the kind of museum I'd visit over and over again, to take in each new event.

We went here for a homework assignment and brought the kiddos. The museum was great and had a fun activity for the little ones to do while we looked through the photos. Their exhibits were very interesting and we spent about an hour there. Definitely entertaining and the staff was great!

I walked in unexpectedly and were immediately welcomed by very friendly staff. So I decided to take a look. It is a small museum but exhibits many outstanding photos. I am fascinated by the method of photographing animals and humans from the same spot; and see how they turn out as a combination.

This photography gallery has free admission, but donations are highly recommended. I was amazed by the exhibition of the children's photography. Ther is a great future ahead of them. In addition, more interesting exhibits are on display. The museum also has a bookstore. Highly recommend visiting.
