Workshops for Adults in L.A.

Venice Arts’ Media Learning Center presents its second series of workshops for adults. Courses provide small group learning, individualized attention, and expert instruction. For some of our programs, you will also have the opportunity to participate in a group exhibit at the Venice Arts Gallery. There’s another important benefit to learning at Venice Arts: all revenue generated from our adult workshops supports our free programs in photography, film, and digital arts for low-income children throughout Los Angeles. Workshops are held at the Venice Arts Gallery, located at 1702 Lincoln Blvd., Venice, CA 90291 | 310.392.0846

What’s Next: An Exploration of Photo-based Mixed Media

Led by visual artist and photographer Karen Florek, who has exhibited nationally and currently curates Women Shooting Women, a collection of women photographers from all over the world.
