Weekend Photography Workshop – Taliesin West Desert Living: Intermediate and Advanced Level

February 21, 2025 – February 23, 2025

From the colors of the mountains to the shapes of the rocks, Wright taught his Apprentices to find inspiration from the natural land. In this weekend workshop designed for intermediate to advanced photographers, participants will learn how to capture the beauty of the Sonoran Desert along with many of the shelters built by former Apprentices at Taliesin West. Participants will connect deeper with the landscape and learn more about the shelter-building process. Like all creative communities, participants will share their work in the spirit of learning from each other.
