June Photography & Urban Sketching Workshop – Picnic at Greek Festival

Want to enjoy a delightful afternoon of art, food, and music? Join us on Friday June 19th from 12:30-2:30pm for our photography & urban sketching workshop at the 25th St. Spyridon Greek Festival! All levels of artists, photographers, food enthusiasts, and friends warmly encouraged to participate. This event is open to the public.

Note that because we are holding this month’s activity at the St. Spyridon Greek Festival, YOU MUST SEPARATELY PAY AN ENTRANCE FEE TO THE FESTIVAL. That entrance fee is $2. If you are a individual served by Open Sky, talk with Open Sky about being sponsored for this event. You pay that entry fee directly to the Greek Festival when you arrive.

We will meet at the St. Spyridon Greek Festival, past the entry gates at 2pm. Photographer Lisa Shea will provide a brief introductory discussion of ideas for taking photos and sketching in an outdoor setting. Then we will explore the festival from 12:30-2:30pm. You can roam on your own, stay with the group, and ask questions whenever you wish. Feel free to come early or stay late!
