Open to 9th, 10th and 11th graders in the Greater New York City Area. The program runs on Saturdays from February – May from 10am – 4 pm. We at Future Imagemakers are passionate about image making and believe in the power of photography as a means for self-‐expression, building self-‐confidence, and reflecting on our surroundings and lives. Students explore the history of photography and contemporary issues, learn camera techniques, Photoshop, digital printing, editing, networking skills, and develop a critical vocabulary. We strive to expand boundaries, open up possibilities, and learn from each other.
