Photography Club is an exciting offer from Photoworks for 13 – 16 year olds in Brighton.
Young people meet on a regular basis to take part in workshops with a photographic artist. These sessions enable participants to develop their camera skills and produce work for an exhibition.
Getting out and about is an important part of Photography Club. The programme includes exhibition visits to local galleries and research trips to cultural organisations.
The club is free and all equipment and materials are provided.
Photography Club also creates opportunities for young people to complete their Arts Award at various levels, supported by a trained Arts Award Adviser.
