Art of Seeing Series: Photography Beyond the Camera.
Register NowEvery street has a story. Every person is part of it.
Portsmouth is more than historic buildings, colorful storefronts, and picturesque streets. It's a living community filled with everyday moments, unexpected encounters, and stories waiting to be discovered.
Join Seacoast Photography School as we explore the people and places that give Portsmouth its character. Through guided fieldwork, we'll learn to recognize meaningful moments, connect people with their surroundings, and create photographs that tell a story.
