Photo Safari: Thursdays, 10:45 AM-12:15 PM

Do you love to take pictures? Do you also love to explore the world? If you answered yes, join PHAME on a photo adventure this summer! Photo Safari will teach you how to take great photographs, and you’ll practice your skills on four field trips to photo-ready locations around Portland.

The first class will be held at PHAME’s Campus, and the other four will meet at yet-to-be-determined locations within eight miles of downtown Portland. Students will decide together during week one where they want to go for the fieldtrips. Students will be responsible for arranging their own transportation to the fieldtrip locations; PHAME will be on site thirty minutes before class begins, and will stay at the location until all students have departed.

Students will need a digital camera (a smart phone is fine). PHAME has a limited number of cameras for students to borrow; contact PHAME directly to reserve one.

Exploratory Classes focus on developing core artistic skills and connecting with a supportive artistic community. These classes dive into the foundations of various art forms, the essential practices that benefit artists at every stage of their journey. Whether you’re trying something new or revisiting the basics to deepen your craft, these classes are designed to be taken again and again. These classes require very little work outside of class.
