Question 1

I would love to come, but Tuesdays are horrible for me. :(

Accepted Answer

Let us know! We understand how disappointing it is when you see a great new event or initiative but it doesn't work into your schedule. At this meeting, we hope to work together to come up with the best meeting time for the community. So your feedback is SO important! Contact us through EB!

Question 2

Can I come if I'm running late or need to leave early?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! We want this to fit into your day seamlessly. Drop in for just 30 minutes, arrive late, or slip away early if you need to. We'll be happy to see you for whatever portion of the evening you can make! If you plan to arrive late, let us know in advance so we can have the door open for you.

Question 3

Will all meetings be free?

Accepted Answer

We would love to be able to host this community for free, however we need to pay for the venue and materials. Future meet-ups will each cost $5 (cash) or $7 (online) with other options coming in the future.

Question 4

I'm not a photographer/don't have a camera/don't know what I'm doing.

Accepted Answer

That's okay! This community is here to inspire and nurture your creativity (even if you think you don't have any). We'll learn new skills together. Most importantly, we'll build a community and take a break from the stress of the day.

Question 5

What if I shoot on film or just my smartphone?

Accepted Answer

All gear is welcome gear! From 35mm film cameras and DSLRs to standard smartphone cameras, the tool doesn't matter—it's all about how you see the world and tell your story.

Question 6

Is there an age requirement to join?

Accepted Answer

Creatives of all ages and experience levels are welcome! Whether you are a student exploring visual arts, a hobbyist with a smartphone, or a seasoned professional, you'll find a supportive, welcoming space here. Those under 16 should be accompanied by an adult.

Question 7

What should I bring to the launch meeting?

Accepted Answer

Just yourself and your curiosity! If you'd like to participate in our optional "Summer Show & Tell," bring 2–3 recent photos on your phone or camera to share with the group.
