Light, Lens, Science

Step into Light, Lens, and Science, a fun family workshop where photography becomes practical science. You’ll learn how light behaves, how lenses control and focus it, and how adventure photographers make images outdoors in real conditions. Then you’ll build a working pinhole camera, take your own photo, and develop it at darkroom stations as the image appears in front of you. Perfect for curious kids and their parents or caregivers. Led by photographer and science communicator Huw, with Suze guiding the build and hands-on activities, from Anturus Education, plus live translation by Sofie so everyone can follow along.
