Explore creative process and hone your skills to create, see and experience art through a journey with Anne's small group, interactive Photographic Explorer series! Students will explore the tools and creative possibilities of photographic image making through camera work and responding to imagery with language. Together we will engage in topic image making, reflective activities, the study of important image makers and thoughtful review of one another’s work as we develop and enhance our own ways of seeing and creating.
These interactive classes are ideal for all ages, and especially with a friend, family member, or caregiver. Bring your cell phone or digital camera and join us for an enriching experience in your creative study. All levels of experience are welcome!
Workshops are an engaging augmentation of your current school learning, Homeschool groups, independent exploration, or as an activity for family or friends to enjoy together. We are happy to recommend or custom design a class that works for your group!
