How do pictures work? What's it like inside of a camera?
Let’s make and decorate our own original camera to find out! What do you see through the lens?
In this workshop, we will create a camera obscura using a magnifying glass, paper pack, and some tracing paper to show how cameras work. A hands-on lesson in the history of the camera and image-making.
