Coming of Age: Photographing the Journey presents new work from local photographers who examine the physical and psychological transformation from child to adult. The photographs encompass widely-varying journeys, rites of passage and societal pressures, and bring to the forefront the ways in which children and teens look beyond the family for self-definition and experience isolation in our technological age.
