StrudelmediaLive Community Weekend in New York City

On the Waterfront: In‑Person Weekend Workshop NYC

Interested in this class? Email us and we'll notify you next time it runs.

Join us for a weekend-long photographic exploration of the waterfront of New York City — discover the unexpected in a small group! There will be something new to experience for everyone!

Fri, April 25: 2-4pm (ET)

A special curated gallery tour with the StrudelmediaLive community, followed by a social get-together.

Sat/Sun, April 26/27: 10am–5pm (ET)

Over two days, you’ll discover the fascinating and varied waterfronts of New York City, including DUMBO, Red Hook, and more. Join us as we explore NYC’s iconic watery realms — by ferry, subway, and foot!

Activities on both days will be held outdoors as much as possible.

Sun, May 4: 12–3pm (ET)

The following Sunday, we’ll meet online to discuss and critique your fresh NYC photographs.

Please note: Make sure to wear good shoes because we'll be walking a good amount.
 
I wanted to thank you for all of your expertise and advice! You certainly helped move my photography to a much more authentic and insightful level and your endless support and encouragement keep those creative wheels turning and my photographic passions burning.
