The BDC, Bronx Junior Photo Leauge and Bronx Photo League are all taking part in this year's Photoville!

Attacks on the Press | Mexico
The images featured in this exhibition explore how Mexico has become one of the most dangerous places in the world for journalists, with levels of violence unmatched by any country in the Western Hemisphere. Curated by the BDC's Mike Kamber and Cynthia Rivera.
This will later be on view at New York University, opening October 4th.
