Inside a CAMERA OBSCURA: Join photographers as new meets old at an immersive art experience at the historic CITY TAVERN in Georgetown

Step into the fascinating world of a CAMERA OBSCURA at City Tavern. Immerse yourself in the magic of photography as we blend modern techniques with traditional artistry. Meet fellow photographers, share tips, and explore the creative possibilities together. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to see the world through a different lens!

Enter a darkened room that acts as the inside a camera itself looking directly at the image of the street outside as it is projected via a small lens onto historic walls, celing and floor. The surreal projected image will appear to be flipped upside-down and inverted..
