The Viewpoint Student Program was created to provide students with an educational resource that gives them valuable industry information, feedback, and support in a semi-professional environment.  Viewpoint is offering a program to help high school and college students grow and build their art, meet other students in their chosen field of study who share their interests, and join a thriving organization dedicated to the photographic arts.

Lectures 7:00-8:30 p.m. Currently Available through ZOOM

Next Lecture: September 21 – Expanding Your Creativity with Time/Motion.

All students and Viewpoint members are invited to attend Viewpoint’s Student Lecture Series. These free lectures are for college and high school students and Viewpoint members. Details will be emailed, posted on the website, and sent to faculty to share with students.

For more information, contact Diana Proctor.
