Young Writers & Photography

Young Writers and Photography will integrate the exploration of photography with the craft of writing to expand the way young people see and experience the world around them. Exposure to mentor photographs and texts will support students as they develop photography skills and are inspired to write about the images they create.

While this camp is designed for beginning photographers, we welcome students at all levels of experience to participate.
