It’s Photo Walk Time!
We will be meeting on the first Sunday of the month. Bring any camera you like, and be prepared to wander and shoot for up to an hour.
EBPCO’s bimonthly photo walks are a great way to connect with other photographers while exploring and photographing an interesting Oakland location.
Our photo walks are free and OPEN TO ALL! Bring your camera(s) and your creativity. All cameras welcome, including phones.
WITH GUEST LEADER MALCOLM RYDER AND FACILITATOR BOB SHONKOFF AT OAKLAND PHOTO WORKSHOP
This session is open to EBPCO members only. If you don’t have a membership, you can start one HERE. Join us at Oakland Photo Workshop to share your photo projects and works in progress! These in-person sessions have proven to provide an engaging and supportive space for sharing constructive feedback on both individual images and more defined projects. Established EBPCO leaders offer fresh perspectives, and, along with like-minded peers, you will gain the experience of speaking about your own art and the art of others. We encourage participants in our workshops to attend and share what you made and are working on!
Full! JOIN WAITLIST | This is a FREE event, but advance registration is required.
WITH SAKARA BIRDSONG AT THE EBPCO COMMUNITY DARKROOM
In this one-day workshop, participants will learn methods for manipulating and transferring Polaroid film. This includes transferring an image onto paper or glass and working to create collages out of polaroids with these materials. We’ll also learn how to safely experiment with everyday chemicals found in the pantry to create unconventional polaroid images. Participants are asked to bring a polaroid camera as well as some film (600 or I-type). All other materials are provided by EBPCO.
