Educator Happy Hour
The Photoville Educator Happy Hour is an informal way to connect with educators and art practitioners in the Photoville Education network at Brooklyn Bridge Park for the Opening Weekend Celebration at Photoville 2023!
Spend the Day roaming through the park exploring exhibitions, maybe partake in one of our many free workshops and tours and then come meet up for Happy Hour where you may want to stay for some live music and visual storytelling on the Brooklyn Waterfront.
The first drink is on us!
Date: 6/3/2023
Time: 5:00pm-6:00pm
Location: Brooklyn Bridge Park
Each year, the Education Day program includes the following:
Artist-led Exhibition Tour
Your students view and discuss a diverse group of photography exhibitions, ranging in topic, theme, and photographic approach.
Youth Photographer Panels
Your students hear from local youth photographers, to learn how their peers tell visual stories, and how they can get involved themselves.
Educator Resources and Professional Development
Educators receive a Resource Packet with images and discussion questions to teach from Photoville exhibitions.
Our Festival education program is made possible thanks to our partners PhotoWings and the New York City Mayor’s office of Media and Entertainment.
