Storytelling Through Photography Workshop
Based on the exhibition, Christina Fernandez: Multiple Exposures
Booking: October 1, 2022 – February 5, 2023
In this workshop, students will be inspired by the narrative photography of Los Angeles-based artist, Christina Fernandez, and will learn how to tell a story through photography. Students will strengthen their critical thinking and visual literacy skills, consider the many artistic decisions that photographers make when creating an image, and will create and present their own photographs that communicate their vision and tell their stories. This workshop is based on California content standards for Visual Arts, Media Arts, and Career and Technical Education.
