iPhone Photography Workshop / Tue Dec 1 / 6:30-8PM

iPhone Photography Workshop with David Beckett

Tuesday, December 1st from 6:30 – 8:00 PM in the SAL room

You own a surprisingly good camera, and it’s always with you. You know there is more you can do with your phone to create good shots. Perhaps you don’t know where to begin.

This hands-on workshop will cover composition, lighting, macro shots, the surprising capabilities of portrait mode, and how to find that photo you want quickly. All abilities are welcome. Note, while android users are welcome, the workshop is designed for iPhones specifically. You’ll leave with tips and tricks for every situation.

David has offered his iPhone Photography Workshop regularly throughout Northwest Vermont for the last 2 years.

A thrilling social deduction game of lies & logic led by Storyteller Katharine Bodan.

As the town of Ravenswood Bluff slumbers, a chilling scene unfolds: the town’s storyteller is murdered, their lifeless body displayed on the face of the village clocktower. With dawn’s arrival comes a grim realization— a demon roams among them, claiming lives at night and hiding in plain sight by day.
