Click!
(for
Juniors)
Trace the evolution of photography and film and learn about different
cameras, lenses, and their uses. Scouts will take portraits of
each other and create a frame for their favorite work!
What
a Great Eye!
(for
Cadettes and Seniors)
Scouts explore the basics of composition and design through an
interactive photo-composing activity. They also learn about digital
photography and apply their learned skills to making digital pictures
while using beautiful Balboa Park as their background. Scouts
go home with their very own digital photograph at the end of the
session!
How
to Run Your Own Museum! (for
Cadettes and Seniors)
This is fun! Normally reserved for patrons and special donors,
Scouts go behind-the-scenes on tour of the backstage of a museum.
Visit the Print Viewing Room, Registrar, and Preparator workspace,
and the Museum’s Vault. Scouts also participate in a guided
tour of the current exhibit and a museum activity!
