These on-the-move workshops are suitable for ages 15+ (under 18s must be accompanied) and are perfect for beginners, hobbyists, and experienced photographers alike. You must bring your own phone and/or camera for photography.

We will start each session with a draw to win a disposable camera. You’ll also have the chance to have your photographs featured in an online exhibition on the Darebin Arts website, alongside images from the disposable camera.
