Chagrin Falls Branch

Meeting Room (Main Floor) (32)

A three session photography workshop focused on the developing a stronger relationship with the artistry of picture making.

This community focused photography program is geared towards intermediate digital photographers seeking to improve their relationship with the artistry and meditative aspects of photography.

This is not an instructional class on how to use a camera. This is a series of single day workshops conducted over the course of three weeks. Each session will be two hours long and consists of a discussion, a predetermined photowalk around Chagrin Falls, and end with a collective review back at the library. 

If you register the first session you will be registered for all three weeks. Each session builds on the next, so it is expected that attendees show up each week. Spots are limited, so only sign up if you plan to attend all three sessions.

Dates and Times:

Wednesday July 29, 2-4PM

Wednesday Aug 5 2-4PM

Wednesday Aug 12  2-4PM

Reception August 26th 2-4PM

Requirements

  • a pair of walking shoes
  • a DSLR camera
  • an open mind


Walk Disclaimer: There will be a walk each session if the weather permits. The route from, and back to, the library will be made as easy and accessible as possible. Though there will be the chance of inclines and uneven terrain. 

If you have any questions call 440.247.3556

About the branch

The Chagrin Falls Branch traces its roots all the way back to 1921, when a group of women formed the Chagrin Falls Memorial Association. After selling 44 shares of stock for $10 a piece, the women rented a room on the second floor of a building to support a library service. The branch joined the Cuyahoga County Public Library system in 1924.
