Photography Class, lessons and Workshop Update 03/15/21

We’ve had 4 new workshops presented at both Selby Gardens and the Historic Spanish Point campus. These new three-hour workshops have been carefully crafted to be outside following Selby’s guidance of Social Distancing. For more click here. Additional workshops will hopefully begin this spring and summer at the community meeting house at Turtle Beach on Siesta Key. I’m hopeful Sarasota County will grant access to SRQ Photo School once the vaccination process nears completion. In the meantime, if you have questions or are interested in private photography instruction please contact Perry Johnson at (941) 350-9064 or perry@imagica.us or visit the link below.
