CAMERAreach 2009/10
Photo collage created in PERSON/PERSONA CAMERAreach workshop, 2007
Workshops for 2009/10 are now OPEN!
CAMERAreach
workshops are an exciting hands-on experience in photography for youth
in the Toronto District School Board.
Our instructors are professional photographic artists with extensive experience
teaching elementary and secondary students including those with special
needs. The workshops emphasize self-expression through the development
of creativity and technical skills. Our instructors come to your school
and work onsite with your class. Workshops require a full day (one
exception is noted below) and may be customized to complement your curriculum.
Instruction in French is available for some workshops. Because
CAMERAreach workshops are subsidized by Gallery 44,
public schools pay
only $75.00 plus GST and materials costs. Please
see workshop descriptions for materials' fees, which are based on a 20
participant minimum. During
these workshops, Gallery 44 requires that teacher supervision is provided
by the school for the duration of the course.
