After a brief meeting, we work as teams creating setups for photographing still-lifes. People bring items for a general or specific themes; i.e. western, floral, spring, holidays, or old items such as vases, clocks, or toys. In addition, people bring equipment for the setups such as tri-fold foamcore, lights, backdrop fabric, drapery, and boxes to set items on. Tables are available at the Art Center. This has been a very popular meeting in the past. It is a great time to get to know other members and learn from them.

If you live in North Dallas, it is a quick trip via the George Bush Turnpike. We will carpool at 12:00 noon from LaMadelaine's on 15th in Plano.

We need volunteers to bring snacks.
