Month of Photography: Full-Day Photography Workshop
Join Denver Botanic Gardens for a full-day workshop to kick off the Month of Photography in March. Bring your camera, tripod and questions because this interactive workshop has it all. Learn from and work alongside our talented instructors with hands-on demonstrations, discussions and Q&A. Begin the early morning with coffee and conversation with our community of photographers. Then, we move to the auditorium for brief introductions from our instructors followed by hands-on demonstrations outside in the Gardens. Have time to experiment with the techniques demonstrated and ask questions one-on-one.
The full agenda will be added once finalized.
