PROGRAM INFORMATION
Thank you for your interest in Franklin Art Works’ Summer Photography Workshops!
Franklin Art Works presents the second year of it’s free summer program in digital photography for students ages 15-18. The program offers 10 free photography workshops covering a range of topics, taking place on Saturday and Sunday afternoons between June 11-July 23, 2011.
The Summer Photo Workshops for Teens Program is completely free. Participants are offered the use of a digital camera, choice of two workshops, and admission to summer photography lectures at Franklin Art Works. Selected students must be highly motivated and interested in learning different styles of photography.
The workshops are taught by twelve acclaimed photographers in a variety of locations across the Twin Cities. Each workshop includes a brief introductory lecture, three hours of shooting, and a final critique. At the end of each workshop, students will work with their instructor and fellow students to select one photograph to be printed and presented in an exhibition of student works at Franklin Art Works on Saturday, July 23.
This is a great opportunity to sharpen your skills, meet other young artists, and make connections with talented local photographers!
Program includes:
- Free use of a digital camera
- Free transportation to off-site classes
- Large-scale printing of one photograph per student
- Inclusion in final public exhibition of student works at Franklin Art Works
In order to make this a dynamic hands-on experience for participants, class size is limited to 6 students per workshop – Interested students should sign up now!
