At Outside the Lens, we’ve always believed that media arts are more than just creative expression—they’re a tool for transformation, empowerment, and connection. That’s why we’re so excited to see our Executive Director featured in the San Diego Union-Tribune! The article, “Looking at the World Through a Camera Lens Is Just the Beginning,” highlights the impact of OTL’s work, showcasing how we equip young people with the skills to tell their own stories, challenge narratives, and create change. It’s a powerful read that reinforces why media literacy and storytelling matter, now more than ever.
From classrooms to community spaces, our programs give youth the opportunity to see the world—and their place in it—through a new lens. This feature captures the heart of what we do at OTL: fostering creativity, amplifying voices, and using media to build a more just and connected world. We’d love for you to check out the article and celebrate this milestone with us!
