Join us to talk about American landscape photography, past and present. We will talk about 20th century American documentary photography, using the photographs on display from the KAM collection in the Capturing Landscape exhibition as our starting point. Bring your ideas about photography (and your camera) because after the talk, you will be invited to capture images from the exhibition as inspiration for your own photography, then submit new landscape photographs to be featured in an online Capturing Landscape photo gallery.

Please visit https://kam.illinois.edu for more information. This event is free (donations accepted) and open to the public.
