Join us for an afternoon of free art activities, tours, films, and music! The California Museum of Photography is celebrating its 50^th anniversary this year so it’s the perfect time to explore early photographic processes through hands-on activities and see the extensive collection of cameras and photographs! Don’t miss the exhibition of photographs by Inland Empire middle school and high school students inspired by photographic artist, Christina Fernandez, on view at the CMP third floor and check out the walk-in Camera Obscura room!
