Dedicated Photography Building/Space

Everyone owns a camera, even if it's on their phone. Photography (and film) is a huge growth area of the arts and as such, people are more interested than ever in how to take their photos from ho-hum to wow. A dedicated space in which to learn and grow as a photographic artist, a space in which workshops can be conducted that use large lighting equipment and display screens, a space to store and USE the equipment that the photo club already owns, in order to develop and display the incredible talents of our local people would be invaluable. Larger workshops, visiting presenters, and more creative set ups could all be generated in a building dedicated to the photographic arts.

Artifacts preservation, refurbishment and restoration

Capella Pioneer Village

Better advertise and promote our existing facilities, events, groups, etc.

Share personal stories and photos of events, spaces, groups, people, etc. Build upon the personal/human element. Tell a story. Share a story. Make people feel connected. Facebook, newsletters, websites, emails, newspapers, etc. - use them all, often it takes many methods and many attempts to reach people.
