Week 3: First Event

This week at Waterfall Arts I was assigned another project to work on; I am coming up with questions to ask local artist Maxwell Nolin that will be put in a blog on the WA website. This project is ongoing, after Max I will interview other artists at Waterfall and hopefully get a nice collection of interesting blogs. On Friday, I stayed late to help prepare for the Young Artist Gallery Takeover event. Art made by children ranging from kindergarten to eighth grade was displayed throughout the gallery, and my job was to photograph as much of the artwork and the people attending as possible. There was a short break during this event when a few girls from the after-school program at WA decided to put on a mostly impromptu play for everyone, which involved them running around dressed as kittens looking for mittens they lost. Overall, this event was really successful and it was a good way to start getting experience photographing events.
