School Photographic Workshop
As part of its patronage of the arts, the Moran Arts Foundation provides up to 100 free photographic workshops to schools around Australia each year. The Moran Arts Foundation is a philanthropic, not-for-profit organisation whose objective is to support the arts in Australia through the Moran Prizes, Moran Galleries and School Photographic Workshops
YesterIn Term 1, 30 students from Stage 3 were lucky enough to attend a Moran Arts Foundation photographic workshop at Wheeler Heights Public School with local photographer, Sally Mayman.
Each student was given a digital camera to work with for the day and learnt basic photography skills along the theme of ‘Visual Storytelling’. They printed their favourite 5 shots of the day which were automatically entered into the Moran Contemporary Photographic Prize (student category).
All participating students thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to be imaginative and creative through the art of photography and built valuable skills and confidence in the process.
