Set in the beautiful South Cliff Gardens, this 3 hour workshop will introduce you to using the camera as a tool to help you engage your curious eye and look at your surroundings from a fresh perspective. This practice, known as Mindful Photography, uses mindfulness techniques and connections with nature to heighten our awareness of how we relate to our environment and how everything is interconnected. Studies have shown that this practice can help improve wellbeing and mental health. There is no need for any photographic knowledge other than being able to operate your digital camera, which can just be a mobile phone. Sessions are for adults and will take place around the Gardens, with a starting point at Beeforth’s Hive at 10:30am. Led by Jacqui Barrowcliffe, visual artist and creative workshop facilitator.

This is an outdoor activity so please dress appropriately for the weather.

Please remember to bring a suitable device for digital photography such as a mobile phone or digital camera as these are not supplied.
