Photography for Self-Expression
Virtual Course
AbleVoices virtual Photography for Self-Expression (PSE) is a 10-week course for youth and adults with disabilities ages 14 and older. During this online and virtual class, students learn about how to use photography as a means for self-expression. Participants are given a new “photo mission” along with an instructional video and group discussion post each week. Students take photos and practice their new skills related to the photo mission. The following week, the instructor and class participants meet virtually to share their photos and discuss the photography skills learned. This is a great way to connect and share about ourselves through our photographs! At the end of the course, each participant chooses two photos for the website exhibit (see below)!
Classes are limited to 7 students per section. All digital cameras are acceptable for virtual classes, including smart phones. Local participants (Greater Nashville Area) are eligible to use an AbleVoices point and shoot camera. The virtual PSE course is offered every Fall (starting just after Labor Day) and at the start of the New Year (end of January).

The Photography for Self-Expression course is a prerequisite for the AbleVoices in-person and virtual Photography Clubs and all other AbleVoices programming.
