PhotoSpiva Kids

Ages: Elementary Age
Instructor: Andy Neher
Date: Saturday, March 21
Time: 10:30 AM – 12:15 PM

In PhotoSpiva Kids, young photographers will explore the fundamentals of photography through hands-on learning and creative exploration. Andy will guide students through basic photography principles, including composition, lighting, and visual storytelling, before heading out on a photo walk around downtown Joplin.

Cameras are provided for use during class. Students participating in PhotoSpiva Kids & Teens may also borrow a camera from Spiva for one week (if they don’t have their own) to continue capturing images for submission.

What students will experience:

  • Introduction to photography concepts and camera basics

  • A guided downtown photo walk

  • Opportunity to borrow a camera for extended exploration

  • Support selecting images for exhibition

Youth Exhibit Opportunity!
Each student will have work selected to be featured in the PhotoSpiva Kids & Teens Exhibit, with a public reception at 11:00 AM on May 9. Artwork will be available for sale, and participating youth artists will receive a 70% commission on sold work.

A meaningful introduction to photography that celebrates young artists and gives them a real gallery experience.
