Tower Hill Winter Reimagined
Gorgeous lights and colors bring Tower Hill to a wintry wonderland. We’re going on a field trip this Thursday, December 3rd. The plan is to meet in the lobby at 5:30pm and then begin exploring. We’ll re-meet at Twigs (the cafe) at 7:30pm for warm-up and social.
Thank you to Dennis for suggesting this fun idea! He recommends a tripod and spare battery. He also suggests that bringing exact change, for those paying cash, is a help to the Tower Hill folks.
We’ll play with a variety of night photography ideas!
I’ve checked with my library and it doesn’t seem that passes are accepted for this event. Prices are:
Members: Free
Adults: $15
Seniors (65 and over): $10
Youth 6-18: $5
Children 5 and under: Free
