This beginner-friendly workshop is designed for parents and caregivers who want to take better photos of their kids, family moments, school events, and sports. You will learn the basics of photography so you can feel more confident using your smartphone, DSLR, mirrorless camera, or point-and-shoot.

What do you love to look at, birds, flowers, your children or grandchildren, pets, paintings by master artists? Learn to draw your favorite people and things! Bring in photographs you would like to make drawings from. Each week, you will get guided help in class & inspiration for more drawing practice between classes! We will begin by playing with our supplies to find out how to make a variety of marks, lines and shading types, and then move on in later classes to sketch from the photos you bring in. All drawing materials are provided.
