The November 6 session, "Beyond the Apps – Making Powerful Photos," is a two-hour photography workshop led by Donna Drake, who has a B.A. in art with a focus on photography and has taught photography to young people in the area for several years. Instead of relying on filters, students learn how to plan a picture that tells a story: a quiet moment, a landscape, action and excitement, a portrait of a friend or a pet, or simply a better selfie. The group looks at and talks about photographs together, practices a few easy techniques and then works on images of their own. The museum asks that students be comfortable with technology and already have a basic understanding of photography; the page does not list materials to bring. The workshop is free. Register through the form on the event page (grades 6–12, one to twelve youths per group) or by phone at (928) 684-2272. The club meets on first Fridays except in January. ## Similar picks in Phoenix - [Free Family Friday at the Sigler Western Museum — Wickenburg](https://grassyknees.com/phoenix/activities/free-family-friday-at-the-sigler-western-museum-wickenburg--listing-e6fab1bb5d715fbd48a5270d) — Fri, Nov 6 (+1 more date) · 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM · Sigler Western Museum — Cultural Crossroads Learning Center, Wickenburg · All ages · Free · checked Oct 27.
