SUMMARY:Photography Group
DESCRIPTION:The Fall River Public Library invites all photography enthusiasts to join our new Photography Group. \n\n\n\nOn the last Wednesday of each month\, participants will share their work\, provide feedback\, and join in open discussion about the wonderful art of photography! A monthly\, optional theme will be picked at random to help inspire and prompt our members to make new and exciting work to share each session. Participants are asked to bring in a thumbdrive of their work\, with a selection of 5-10 photos\, if they intend to share with the group that month. \n\n\n\nWhile we gladly accept photographers at all stages of their journeys\, the Photography Group does not offer photography lessons. We do encourage our participants to ask questions about photography\, and to share tips and tricks they’ve learned with each other. \n\n\n\nThis program is intended for photographers ages 13 and up.

His Grammy-nominated sophomore album\, Spectacular Class\, sees Jontavious survey an array of Blues styles with lively ensemble performances. \nHis upcoming album\, signed with Strolling Bones Records\, is a testament to his love for songwriting.
