Song Writing - Through exercises, practice, and examples, learn how to write lyrics, structure songs.
Turn your ideas into a musical format. Beginning and
non-musicians welcome! (Falkow)

Photography–The Portrait: Looking Out, Looking In - Skillful photographs use the relationship between light and its absence to extract a singular moment of time and place. This workshop will explore figures and faces, creating portraits of the self and others that reflect personal expression and discovery. Each participant should bring a digital camera or camera phone, memory card and USB cable (or other method of transferring images to a computer, such as a card reader).
Beginning and experienced photographers welcome!
(Camp)

Painting–Unusual Correspondence:
Messages in Shape & Form
- Participants will craft creative personal statements in the form of 2- and 3-dimensional structures that explore layers of texture, color and design. Working with acrylic paint, 145 lb. watercolor paper, fond and found objects, our final products will include letters and postcards containing real and imagined elements. Each participant should bring copies of their favorite photos, interesting scraps of paper to collage and both rubber and postage stamps. Beginning and non-painters welcome! (Bullock)
