Through the KYOTOGRAPHIE KIDS Program, we educate the new generation of photo lovers with a strong pedagogy and unique artistic opportunities.
In 2023, we will use the festival theme Border to explore what connects or separates us. KYOTOGRAPHIE KIDS Program is spread over various spaces and platforms during the festival dates.

The KYOTOGRAPHIE KIDS Competition and Exhibition is the achievement of a program that we developed with participating schools. We educate children about visual principles and photography using the ‘KYOTOGRAPHIE tutorial’ and encourage practical work. We support teachers, giving them accessible tools for the classroom.
Through the competition and the exhibition, we stimulate the children’s interest, and we transform a school activity into a real art experience.
