FAQs
Q: What is your overall mission/goals?
A: Photo Opp's mission is to offer a space for people of all ages and backgrounds to learn photography and videography. We want to create a space for beginners and pros to learn from each other and enjoy the craft. We also see this as a way to meet growing demand in the photo and video fields. Our culture has become so visually based and has become so dependent on quality photo and video work. The companies and organizations in our community will need skilled digital visual artists more and more to help them promote and communicate their brands.
Q: When do you plan on opening?
A: As of now, our next step is to finalize remodeling plans, then get bids from contractors, then launch a successful capital fundraising campaign. That said, we are hoping to get through the steps and be open by June/July of 2022.
Q: Are you planning on having photo classes?
A: We're looking to work with school districts to assist in their programs. We're also looking into partnerships with youth group organizations. Let us know if you know of a potential partner organization. Workshops will be offered at Photo Opp. These workshops will be short-term opportunities and will have ranging difficulty levels. Offering classes or ongoing workshop series are on our wish list, but we haven't detailed that programming yet.
