Wet Plate Collodion Workshops

AS OF APRIL, 2020, ALL WORKSHOPS ARE CANCELLED DUE TO COVID-19. WE HOPE TO OFFER THEM AGAIN IN THE SPRING OF 2021 AT OUR NEW PLACE IN THE COLORADO ROCKY MOUNTAINS. 

(Administrated by Jean Jacobson)

1. PRIVATE WORKSHOPS: This is for individuals that want to have the full experience of the process or that want to concentrate on a specific area in the process. $1200 for two days; lunch is included as well as everything you need to work in the process - you do not need to bring anything. Workshops are held in my home studio in east Aurora, Colorado (15 minutes from the Denver International Airport). 

 

2. GROUP WORKSHOPS: This is for TWO people (couples, friends, co-workers, etc.) that want to share the experience of learning the process together. However, you DO NOT have to know one another.

Workshops are held in my home studio in east Aurora, Colorado (15 minutes from the Denver International Airport).
