Right up our street - self-portrait photography

Self-portrait photography workshop helping participants explore identity, confidence, and creativity.

Come and join Self-Portrait Studio, a space to explore how you see yourself and tell your story through your own self-portrait. We invite you to bring a special item or choose your props from our mystery selection, experiment visibility and posture, as well as backgrounds and materials. You will be guided and supported through the workshop helping you to celebrate your identity, your sense of place, and what matters to you. You will have the option to share your work in our local exhibition, giving everyone a chance to celebrate each other’s creativity with pride.
