After School Programs
CEPA’s after school programs give participating students the opportunity to learn about photography through hands-on experience with our exceptionally talented, professional teaching artists. Students study and practice a variety of photographic processes, including:
- Black-and-white film photography
- Digital photography
- Pinhole cameras and photograms
- Darkroom printing techniques
- Digital graphic design
- Animation
- Creative writing
- Bookmaking . . . and more
Here are just a few of our after school programs.
