AMERICA REIMAGINED December Update

Boyd's Station AMERICA REIMAGINED project has been updated with three amazing photographer's essays. Two follow along behind the scenes of Santas in Michigan and Hawaii by photographers Akash Pamarthy and Shafkat Anowar and the other story is a somber and telling look inside a COVID-19 ward of a hospital near Columbus, Ohio photographed by Gaelen Morse.

The America Reimagined project was started at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic as a way of engaging and mentoring students while schools and other programs were shut down. The simple goal of this documentary project was to fill some of the gaps while the coronavirus pandemic kept students from campus. The work that has been produced has been truly outstanding.

This project is made possible with the generous support of Photoshetler and American Reportage’s photographers Pete Marovich, Jeff Swensen, and Rod Lamkey Jr and the rest of the American Reportage collective photographers along with the dedicated, behind the scenes editing and mentor team making this all happen - Michael E. Keating, Molly Roberts, Cathaleen Curtiss, Charles Borst, Stephen Crowley, and Nikki Kahn.

This project has grown into an impressive and important visual documentary photographed mainly by student and emerging photojournalists documenting the United States during these difficult times and will continue to document throughout 2021.
