George Eastman House

Staff, members, and friends are taking part in a 5k race to raise money for the Genesee Center. The fifth annual George Eastman House Photo Finish 5K will take place on Saturday, October 3, 2015. With a great course through Rochester’s Neighborhood of the Arts, the run/walk is open to all—from competitive runners and people using wheelchairs, to casual joggers, dedicated walkers, and entire families. 

Also called "The Philanthropy Challenge," the race aims to raise funds for George Eastman House as well as other nonprofit organizations that make Rochester a great place to live and work. The Photo Finish 5k embodies both George Eastman’s philanthropic spirit and his ideals of wellness and health. 

What will we use the donations for?

  • Continuing to bring in regional and national artists for exhibits and workshops
  • Classes all year round for more than a thousand students
  • A free photo club for City middle schoolers and high schoolers
