An Evening with James Rice, presented by Leica

Join us for a powerful and inspiring evening with acclaimed Leica photographer James Rice, whose black and white imagery captures the quiet, magical moments of everyday life while telling a deeply personal story of resilience and healing. Introduced to photography by his mother as a child, James set down the camera for 40 years after a tragic act of violence claimed her life—only to rediscover it decades later as a path toward emotional recovery and creative expression. Now the author of four published books (Second Look, Chicago Avenue, Real Cuba, and Shooting), James has exhibited his work in solo gallery shows, spoken at the International Center of Photography in NYC, and been featured in Leica Fotografie International and Viewfinder Magazine. In this special appearance, he will present selections from his recent work, share the compelling stories behind his images, and reflect on photography’s power to illuminate both pain and beauty. Whether you're a photographer, a creative, or someone who values the transformative nature of art, James’s talk promises to be a moving experience that reveals the extraordinary within the ordinary.
