Creating Holiday Photo Art
Join us and turn decorative holiday items into amazing photo art!
From festive wrappings, ribbons & trimmings, delicate tree ornaments, colorful candies and sweets, and so much more.
Using our cameras or smartphones, let’s get in the spirit of the season and frame our own style of holiday photo art!
Turn your images in to greeting cards, thank you notes, personalized gifts, themed wall art, not to mention sharing a few on social!
Students will photograph at each of the holiday stations that are set up with themed scenarios, such as wrapped gifts, colorful ornaments, pinecones with greenery, picture frames, and so much more.
Students are encouraged to bring a favorite ornament or holiday treasure to photograph at one of the stations.
