Special Focus: Photography February Break Intensive
Special Focus is a four-day intensive during Boston Public Schools’ February Break. In Special Focus, teens can expect to learn photography skills and how to use a DSLR camera. During this four-day intensive, teens will explore photography through the lens of portraiture: understanding what it means to create a strong portrait, how to utilize studio lighting to create portraits, and what techniques a photographer can use to capture “the essence” of another person.
The program will lead teens through the basics of portraiture photography and working with equipment to build up to an event where Special Focus will host “ICA Picture Day.”
Special Focus takes place Tues–Fri, Feb 18–21, 2025, 11 AM–5 PM each day at the ICA’s Seaport Studio. Teens will have an hour-long lunch break each day.
Teens earn $360 for completing the 20-hour program.
The application for this program has closed. Details on next year’s program will be available in November.
