The Big Picture - Photography Education Fair

May 21, 2012 - PRLog -- 100cameras   gives   cameras   to   marginalized   children   around   the   world   and   teaches   them   how   to   tell   their   story   through   photography.   100cameras   then   shares   their   photos   with   a   global   audience,   and   100%   of   the  is   used   to   meet   physical   needs   in   their   community.   It   is   their   voice  that  raises  awareness  and  creates  positive  change  to  brighten  their  own  future.  
  The  Big  Picture  Photography  Education  Fair  will  consist  of  interactive  booths  where  visitors  may  bring  their   cameras   to   learn   various   concepts   about   photography,   such   as   brightness,   aperture   and   shutter   speed.   At   each   booth,   attendees   will   capture   beautiful   images   by   learning   how   to   use   their   cameras   and   apply   these   concepts.   Each   participant   will   leave   the   fair   with   stunning   pictures   and   a   newfound   knowledge   about   how   their   cameras   work.   Upon   exit,   cityHUNT   will   host   a   photography   scavenger   hunt   in   Times   Square   for   those   interested.  Participants  will  be  eligible  to  win  raffle  prizes.  There  will  be  no  cost  to  participate  in  the  fair. The  Big  Picture  goal  of  the  Photography  Education  Fair  is  to  bridge  worlds  together  by  empowering  creativity   for   both   the   attendees   of   the   fair   and   underserved   children   across   our   globe.   The   Big   Picture   seeks   to   raise   $250,000   to   enable   100cameras   to   teach   photography   to   more   children   who   would   otherwise   not   have   access.  Learn  more  and  RSVP  at  www.thebigpic.eventbrite.com.        Established  in  2009,  100cameras  is  a  registered  501c3  non-­‐profit  organization.  To  date,  100cameras  has  completed   three  projects  in  South  Sudan,  New  York  City,  and  Cuba  with  plans  to  launch  their  fourth  in  India  during  fall  2012.
