Did a Dragon Throw Up on His Shoes? Fun with Photography and Storytelling

3 Sunday sessions: September 18, 25, October 2

12-2pm

Taught by Johanna Gohmann

Ages 8-10, limited to 8 students

Did you ever see a photograph of someone laughing, and wonder, what on earth was so funny? Did someone just fall down? Tell a joke? Or ask them if they'd like to buy a bag of dirty toucan beaks? Have you ever seen a picture of a little boy crying, and tried to imagine what brought on the tears? Did a dragon just throw up on his new shoes? Did aliens just steal his lunch money?

All pictures have a story to tell. In this class we will have fun letting photographs inspire new stories, and letting these stories in turn inspire new photographs. Armed with a pen, a paper, and a disposable camera, each student will have the chance to explore the link between photography and story-telling. Our finished product will be turned into a lovely book, worthy of any Brooklyn coffeetable
