Pulitzer Center grantee Larry C. Price participates as a guest presenter at the 2014 Olympus InVision Photo Festival at the Banana Factory & Steelstacks in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The exhibition begins on Friday, November 7 and runs until Sunday, November 9.

Price, a two-time Pulitzer Prize winning photographer, exhibits photos from his Pulitzer Center-supported project, "Philippines and Indonesia: The Cost of Gold," documenting the lives of child labor workers mining in these countries. A risky, often deadly, business, child labor is growing as families rush to exploit the worldwide demand for gold.
