Street Photography Wandering
The Bay Centre, Fort Street entrance at Broad Street, Victoria, BC, CABring your camera and we will meet just inside the Bay Centre main entrance. We will stop briefly to view the Victoria Arts Council multimedia art installation.
Naming a Crisis (a month-long community art show displaying stories, names, artwork, and advocacy work since the province of B.C. first declared the toxic drug overdose crisis in 2016). Next we will wander up Douglas street towards Bay, perhaps walking through Centennial Square, and then circle back down along government back to where we started, stopping along the way or meandering along cross streets. Street photography is often people or architecture centred with a focus on social issues or street life, but it can be anything you want it to be as long as it captures the real life and happenings from the street. It often seeks to capture or document some kind of commentary about the state of the city or neighbourhood (whatever that might be for you and your camera's eye). Feel free to be independent along the walk and if you see something you are interested in you can branch off on your own and then meet back up with the group after. You can also use your phone camera if you don't have a camera. If it's raining or too cold the walk will be cancelled. If we are feeling up for it we can grab a drink together at the end of the walk.7 attendees
