DMA Family Workshop: Photography










Ironically, photography was not allowed in the gallery because we visited a traveling exhibit and no photography was permitted. It was a delightful exhibit and at one point the instructors had the kids in the class all pose as specific people in the work we were focusing on, which was FABULOUS! Wish I could have gotten a picture of it. :(

The box in some of the photos is a pin-hole camera that one of our instructors made for each child taking the class. He is planning to develop them by next month's class. Fun!

Side note: All three instructors were excited at the possibility of having JDS and AMS volunteer with them. JDS has been talking about getting an Art History degree, so this would be FABULOUS for him in seeing some of what people with those degrees DO for a living. AMS is just excited to be a part of something so artsy, her loving photography so much. My dad would be so excited to know she shares his hobby.

How fun for them to pose as people in the painting . . . so very Gilmore Girls!

Would be exciting if they could work there. . .
