Teen Summer Photography Workshop | Franklin Foto | July 13–17
Advertisement
Teens ages 13–18 learn film photography hands-on: shooting, developing & darkroom printing. July 13–17 in St Johns. Sliding scale available.
About this Event
There's something different about a photograph you made by hand.
Franklin Foto's Teen Summer Photography Workshop gives teens ages 13–18 a fully immersive introduction to film photography -- from loading a camera and shooting a roll to developing negatives and printing in the darkroom. It's tactile, creative, and genuinely fun, and students leave with a set of prints and skills that last well beyond the week.
No prior experience needed. Loaner cameras are available.
What we'll cover:
How do you see the world? What draws you in? How do you compose the frame?
Come explore.

Dates: Monday–Friday, July 13–17, 2026
Time: 10 a.m.–3 p.m. daily
Ages: 13–18
