Introducing Lifelong Studio, a series of sequential, hands-on artmaking workshops at the Bronx Museum of the Arts for adults ages 55 and over.

Each program is eight weeks long and culminates in an artmaking project and final celebration. Programs are entirely free, but we ask that participants commit to attending all sessions.

Picturing the Community: Photography Workshop

In this first series of Lifelong Studio workshops, explore different ways of telling stories through photographic images and collages. Through this sequential photography studio program, participants will learn the history and impact of photography in society and the art world. Participants will also learn the foundational mechanics of photography and see how artists have utilized photography in their creative practices. Participants will be working towards the final project of a bound photo series book. At the culmination of the program, participants will take home an edition of their photobook, a portfolio of all of the additional projects completed in the studio, and a small kit of materials to continue their photographic explorations.
