Getting to Know Your Camera

The CAAA will be starting a monthly photography class for beginners!  The first of the monthly classes will be held Monday August 29th at 6:00pm at the CAAA building.  The first class will be our introductory class and we’ll focus on getting to know how to work your camera. It is not necessary for you to attend all the classes in order to participate in classes after the series starts. We would like to hold this class once a month, but that will depend on how much interest and participation we have in the classes. So please call Sunny at the Art Alliance to sign up and tell a friend! 229-273-6242
