Practicing photography from his East Village studio since 1982\, he is known for combining fine art and documentary photography of the downtown music and art scenes. \nA graduate of The School of Visual Arts (1990) Michael’s teaching career began at Parsons School of Design in 1994. He has taught photography at The New School\, The School of Visual Arts and The Educational Alliance before founding The Hamilton Heights Darkroom. \nHe has exhibited at many galleries in the US and Japan\, has had work shown in the Jewish Museum of Paris and was a featured photographer at the New York Photo Festival 2010 at St. Ann’s Warehouse\, where he lectured an “Photographing Unseen New York.” \nYou can see his work at his website macioce.org and his instagram @maciocephotography \nLenore Browne started using a film camera after graduating high school. Although she later received business-related degrees\, her passion lies with film photography and printing in a traditional darkroom. In her first attempt to display her photographs\, Browne’s “Life Lines” was selected in a juried competition for exhibition at the Pen and Brush Gallery\, in Greenwich Village\, by Daile Kaplan\, Vice President and Director of Photographs of the Swann Galleries\, May 2009. Thereafter\, she began documenting Harlem as it evolves through its Second Renaissance. Browne’s Harlem photographs have exhibited at Hamilton Landmark Galleries\, Symphony Space\, Harlem Hospital\, Columbia University Barrie Russ\, Harlem Fine Arts Show and the New York Public Library. \nBrowne is a founder and Board Member (President) of the Hamilton Heights Darkroom whose nonprofit mission is to provide photography and darkroom printing experience to youth and adults in the Harlem Community. \n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nAbout Hamilton Heights Darkroom:\nLocated in the historic Hamilton Heights neighborhood within Harlem\, Hamilton Heights Darkroom (HHD) is dedicated to the preservation of traditional darkroom printing and film photography. Students use film cameras\, and print from negatives in the darkroom as a basis to learn photography. HHD offers photography basics and darkroom printing for youth\, teens and adult printers\, from beginner level to advanced. \nAs darkrooms\, photography and public school arts programs disappear\, HHD strives to preserve both culture and photography in the Harlem community. HHD offers group printing classes\, photography classes (film and digital) and discussion about current photography issues in a collegial setting. HHD collaborates with local community arts and culture organizations seeking youth and adults interested in photography. \nOnline registration is required to participate: Register Now

SUMMARY:Easy! Watercolor: Coffee Filter Dip Dye - for Adults
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, May 17\, 4:30 to 5:45 pm – Adults \nCoffee Filter Dip Dye\nParticipants will first learn paper-folding and cutting techniques\, then dip the folded flower into watercolor ink. It will be a wow moment when you open it! \n\n\nFor: Adults\nMax Participants: 15 \nFees:\nIndividual (adult) $5\nOr\, donate-what-you-can \n60 mins class + 15 mins to clean up or catch up\nWear ready-to-make-art clothes\, or bring old T-shirts/art aprons. Some aprons are available. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration is required to participate: Save your spot today! \nAbout Easy! Watercolor Workshop Series – 3rd Sunday of every month\n \n\nEvery session is a little adventure\, as facilitator Tomo Mori introduces a new project and fresh techniques to try. There’s always something fun and different to explore\, and absolutely no need to stress about making a mess—CAC is all about creating and experimenting at your own pace. Painting\, especially with watercolors\, is a soothing experience—whether you love watching colors swirl and blend or simply enjoy the calming motion of your brush. Additionally\, some new projects explore the art of paper weaving and dyeing. \n\n\nThe 3 pm class is perfect for children ages 4 to 12 (and their families)\, while the 4:30 pm session offers a slightly more challenging experience for those ready for a bit more. No matter which class you join\, Tomo is happy to help anyone who wants to dive deeper into their art and get creative. \n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the facilitator: \nTomo Mori\, originally from Japan\, is a West Harlem-based artist specializing in fiber art installations and collage. From ages 14 to 15\, Tomo studied watercolor rigorously under a master watercolorist\, preparing herself to enroll at Tokyo Metropolitan High School for Music and Fine Art\, where she was accepted with a perfect score. \nAlthough watercolor is not central to her current art practice\, Tomo uses the medium to sketch ideas and maintain a visual journal. When she paints with watercolor\, she experiences a sense of freedom and an uplifted spirit—perhaps because the works are only sketches or because the medium is easy to get started with and to clean up. Through these workshops\, she aims to share the joy and therapeutic qualities of watercolor painting. \nTomo’s work has been exhibited at venues such as Columbia University\, Scope Miami\, The Laundromat Project\, Rush Arts Galleries\, Governors Island\, Newark Museum\, Christie’s\, and Swann Auction Galleries. In 2018\, she completed a laminated glass and metal installation commissioned by the MTA. She participated in the Winter Workspace Residency at Wave Hill in early 2023 and currently works as a studio artist at the Children’s Art Carnival. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n \nRegistration is required to participate: Save your spot today! \nUPCOMING WORKSHOPS \nJune 21: Father’s Day! Masking Tape Painting. We will use painter’s tape and acrylic paint to create a color-block painting on a canvas board or sheet \n\n\n\n\n\n
