"I realized that you don't need eyes to make beautiful photography."
- Jessica Young, Wide Angle’s Youth Festival Committee
On November 14th, our Youth Festival Committee took on Seeing Beyond Sight’s Photography Challenge - and created photographs while blindfolded in Patterson Park! See some of their photos at www.wideanglemedia.org.
Our photo shoot was inspired by Seeing Beyond Sight – Photographs by Blind Teenagers, the new book by Tony Deifell. Wide Angle Youth Media is proud to be a co-host of the SEEING BEYOND SALON: An evening of art & perception at the American Visionary Art Museum. We hope you can join us!
