Publication Launches
Open Studio From Home: Book Party with Susan Meiselas
Saturday, March 20
11:00 a.m. - 11:40 a.m. EDT
Aperture is thrilled to team up with the Whitney Museum for a special Open Studio From Home, where we will be joined by award-winning Magnum photographer Susan Meiselas. Together we will celebrate the publication of her new book, Eyes Open: 23 Photography Projects for Curious Kids (Aperture, 2021)! Eyes Open presents fun projects that encourage kids to explore the world around them through photography. Meiselas says, “The camera can be a way of connecting to people and places while also expressing yourself.” Participants will experiment, create, and learn together with at-home art materials.
We will take a look inside Eyes Open and hear from Susan Meiselas herself. Then, we will explore photography together as we respond to one of the prompts featured in the book.
