It was created to both document the over 100 events the Gladstone hosts a month and to provide burgeoning photographers with experience, an expanded portfolio and exposure.

At the end of each internship period the Gladstone will host a photography exhibition of the best work of the photography interns.  The first exhibition will be held in the Art Bar June 2nd to 5th, 2010.  Show hours and details will be determined soon so stay tuned.
