About

In-Person at LACP Headquarters

In an effort to support our community and photographers affected by the devastating fires, LACP will host a Photography Equipment Drive on February 15, 2025 at our DTLA home.

The event is free and open to the public, and all affected by the fires are welcome to join and find photographic equipment they need.

We will be collecting donations of cameras, lenses, printer paper and other photography gear to help those in need within our community to rebuild their creative passions and livelihoods.

If you have gently used or extra equipment that could help, please consider donating. Only items in working condition – let’s make sure these donations can immediately support those in need.

Donations can be dropped off at the following locations and times:
