Explore Philadelphia’s Urban Art: Fall 2023 Photography Course & Walking Tour

About

Explore the world’s largest outdoor art gallery and learn how to photograph murals like a pro. Whether you are a budding or amateur photographer, or experienced professional looking to add a new skill to your practice, you will love this new photography workshop and mural tour interactive experience.

The experience will begin with a 1-hour photography mini course with a professional photographer at UniquePhoto on 28 S 2nd Street in Olde City, where you will gain an understanding of aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and how to best capture photos in the field. A 90 minute mural tour with a professionally-trained guide will follow the course where you can use your new skills, while gaining a behind-the-scenes look into the people and communities that inspired each Mural Arts Philadelphia project! A 30-minute window is allotted for travel as a group from the store to where the tour begins.

Interested but don’t have a camera? No problem! You can rent equipment from UniquePhoto at no additional cost and return it the next day.* You may also purchase printing services at an additional discounted rate.
