 WORLD PHOTOGRAPHY DAY: LASG INSPIRES NEXT GENERATION THROUGH LENS


The Lagos State Film and Video Censors Board (LSFVCB) joined the world in commemorating World Photography Day by introducing children to the fascinating world of photography, visual storytelling and creative expression.


In collaboration with public and private institutions, as well as independent professional photographers who generously volunteered their time and expertise, LSFVCB created an enriching and memorable experience for the children.


The Public Service Staff Development Centre (PSSDC) and Lagos State Records and Archives Bureau (LASRAB) opened their doors to the young participants, who enjoyed an exciting studio experience and an insightful tour of the archival museum. The children also received hands-on camera training from professional photographers and dedicated volunteers who shared their knowledge and passion for the art of photography.


The programme further featured an educational visit to Racomic Photo Studio, where the children gained a deeper understanding of professional photography, as well as a behind-the-scenes experience at the PSSDC transmission studio, offering them a glimpse into the technical processes involved in creating and transmitting visual content.


Through these experiences, the children gained practical knowledge and a first-hand appreciation of how images are captured, stories are told, and visual content is brought to life.


The initiative underscores LSFVCB’s commitment to nurturing young talent, fostering creativity, and empowering the next generation of visual storytellers to see Lagos and the world through fresh and different perspectives.


Because every picture tells a story, and every child has a unique story to tell. Different Eyes. Different Stories. One Lagos.
