Photography Museum Planned for Century City

A museum and community space devoted to digital images and print photography will open in Century City, the non-profit Annenberg Foundation announced today. The organization is building out a space on the former site of the Shubert Theater, which is located near the Foundation's LA offices at 2000 Avenue of the Stars. Expect a Spring 2009 opening for the 10,000 square foot facility, which will feature a state-of-the-art digital projection gallery along with a traditional print exhibit area. More via Annenberg's web site: "Work by photographers at all levels of expertise from around the world will be featured. The galleries will also exhibit often unseen photographic collections held by museums, galleries and media organizations. General admission to the Annenberg Space for Photography will be free."
