The annual Jugend Fotografiert exhibition is celebrating its tenth anniversary this year and once again presents selected works by young photographers from Berlin and beyond. Jugend Fotografiert is a series of workshops and exhibitions that gives children and young people the opportunity to showcase their photos in a professional gallery and to help create an exhibition under the guidance of an experienced team. Through this project, we provide a space for the artistic diversity of young photographers in Berlin and make room for new perspectives.

Fotogalerie Friedrichshain
FOTOGALERIE Friedrichshain is the oldest gallery dedicated to photography in Berlin. When it was founded in 1985, it was the first gallery in the GDR devoted exclusively to the medium of photography.
To this day, it remains located at Helsingforser Platz 1 in Berlin-Friedrichshain, near the S-Bahn station Warschauer Straße, and has been operated by Kulturring in Berlin e.V. since 2002. The gallery is committed to documentary photography that addresses social realities and contemporary issues.
