From 6th to 9th October, 100 talented young photojournalists will come together for the annual Eddie Adams Workshop, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year.
Since its inception, Nikon has been a sponsor of the workshop that offers a unique learning environment for young photojournalists while honouring the legacy of Eddie Adams himself. The workshop, which is also known as the “Barnstorm” due to its location at a rustic upstate New York farm, continues to be the only tuition-free forum of its kind, inviting 100 students specially selected from around the world based merely on the quality of their photos. Many alumni of the programme have been awarded with the industry’s most prestigious accolades from Pulitzer Prizes, honours from the Overseas Press Club, World Press Photo, ICP and many more. In addition to sponsoring the Eddie Adams Workshop, Nikon will award one deserving-student with top-of-the-line professional Nikon equipment suited for a modern-day photojournalist. The winner will be determined by a panel of judges who will select based on the work that the students create during the four-day workshop. This year’s kit will include the new Nikon D850 DSLR, SB-5000 Speedlight as well as the AF-S NIKKOR 20mm f/1. 8G ED, the AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2. 8E ED VR, the AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2. 8E FL ED VR and the AF-S NIKKOR 105mm f/1. 4E ED lenses.
