I am excited to teach a Digital Night Photography workshop through OCAC's Studio School, scheduled for September 25 & 26. To see more of my work that explores the contemporary landscape at night, please feel free to visit my site or go to www.kimikolba.com. Please find all of the details about the workshop below. Also, you can visit Oregon College of Art & Craft's website to see all of the wonderful class offerings and even register online.

I am excited to announce an upcoming workshop through the Studio School at OCAC on April 16 & 17.

COMMUNITY CONNECT: A PASSPORT TO PORTLAND'S ART SCENE 
Craft is community. Craft is connection. Inspired by these philosophies of OCAC, this workshop links the community of OCAC to the larger community of artists presently working in Portland. Participants have the opportunity to connect with the Portland art community, and ask questions of artists, curators, and gallerists that may normally seem unapproachable or inaccessible. This workshop begins with a Friday evening meeting and orientation for the next day’s excursion.  Saturday begins with an introduction to local artist(s) and continues with a studio visit, artist talk, gallery talk and viewing (artist change monthly – selections TBA). This weekend workshop is a wonderful chance to meet artists, see artwork in an intimate setting and gain new access to and understanding of Portland’s diverse art scene. No prerequisite. Location: TBA
Friday, April 16, 6 - 8 pm
Saturday, April 17, 11 - 4 pm
