AHRC: Preschool Portraits

exhibition at Central Park West Gallery (NYC) and AHRC Gala
2016

Info“As a longtime supporter of AHRC, NYC,” states E.A. KAHANE, “I spent many years as co-chair for their annual fundraiser, a trustee for over 10 years, and the first woman recipient of the Anthony M. Fisher Humanitarian Award. Over the years, I have visited the preschool many times and learned how important it is to start the education of a special needs person as early as possible. I was originally invited to photograph one of the students who struck a chord with its Principal. That one visit blossomed into my photographing all 160 of their students with varying degrees of disability. I felt compelled to include every child.” These photographs were exhibited as part of AHRC's Gala, Special Night for Special Children, 2016. All photographs ©E.A KAHANE
