This course is for freshmen ONLY. This course will be an introduction to various neighborhoods of Baltimore through the eye of a camera. Students will be introduced to the concept of photography as an artistic medium for documenting a city's cultural life (e.g. architectural, musical, social, historical) through a mixture of classroom lectures and field trips to Baltimore neighborhoods: Federal Hill, Hampden, Mt. Vernon and Fells Point and visits to the Peabody Library, the Walters Art Museum, the Creative Alliance and a photo studio. Each student will create a small body of work that reflects their interests, point of view and photographic skills.
