    Italy Comes to Colorado

    Da Vinci Capers ~ A Personal Renaissance Journey is hosting Massimo Bassano, a renowned photojournalist from Milan, Italy. Massimo’s photos have graced the pages of National Geographic Traveler, GEO and many other international magazines. He works with some of photography’s greats – Bob Sacha, Bob Krist, and George Steinmetz and others, and teaches with National Geographic and Maine Workshops.

    Massimo’s first visit to Colorado, he will be offering a workshop in Boulder on July 17 – 24th. You have the option of participating the full week or for a shorter 4-day session. The tuition is $1,295 for the week or $795 for 4 days.

    The workshop: Shooting On-Site: Getting Up Close and Personal, is about how to get those extraordinary photographs by becoming part of the scene rather than just watching through a lens.

    This is an opportunity not to miss. You will learn a ton and have fun at the same time.

    Register by this Thursday, June 12th, and receive a free year’s membership with the Louisville Art Association.

    For more information, contact, Barbara Hardesty at (303) 284-1383, or cell: (303) 570-5287 or e-mail: barb@davincicapers.com. To learn more about Massimo and this workshop, please check out Da Vinci Capers’ website: http://www.davincicapers.com/events/index.html
