History Center Presentation on Chattanooga Photography is January 24

  • Wednesday, January 7, 2015

The Chattanooga History Center will present "Say Cheese!" Photography and the Chattanooga Story, for ages 8-13 at 2:30-4:00pm on Saturday, January 24th, 2015 at the Center. This program offers a great opportunity for family members to explore history together.  Participants will learn about photographic processes from daguerreotypes to instagrams.  They will learn to read photographs, as historians do, to gain knowledge about people, events and our city.  They will also make a pinhole cameras to take home.

The program will be led by Senior Educator Caroline Sunderland. The fee is $15 for 1 parent and 1 child ($10 for CHC members). All materials are included in the cost. Participants are responsible for getting their own film developed. Each child must be accompanied by an adult. Space is limited and pre-registration is required by Friday, January 23rd. Call 423-265-3247 or email cs@chattanoogahistory.org to register.
