Advanced Polaroid Transfer workshop 7/20 ! 2-5pm in partnership with NOVA24 + Voyeur Bordello taught by Nick Cazmuck.

If you like Polaroids and you want to take them three levels up sign up for this workshop! All materials provided, all experience levels welcome (but some experience with Polaroid transfers will help!) feel free to bring your own Polaroids or ephemera for customized experimentation.

This session will focus on creative manipulation, layered transfers, and experimental surface applications. Hosted in the lush, decadent setting of The Voyeur Bordello, the workshop will explore both precision and chaos in image-making, encouraging participants to embrace the beautiful imperfections of the medium.

Come ready to push boundaries, get messy, and walk away with one-of-a-kind analog art.
