Workshops and Seminars

The culmination of a documentary project by CDI, the events that confirm and reinforce our mission, will be the public presentation of lectures and seminars of the resulting photographs and narratives. An exhibition will be planned upon completion of each project with related seminars to educate the public on important and relevant subjects.

The exhibition concept is important to signify the value and importance of the project and to educate and inform the public. The seminars, lectures and exhibitions will be sought with an emphasis on achieving an intergenerational audience of youth and adults that will be acquired through publicity and local contact at distinct geographical locations for well-rounded exposure.

Subjects of interest to the local community in photography/oral history based instruction will be presented. The seminars utilize concepts found in the documentary project and educate on both the subject matter and teaches "how to do what we do" so that the public can explore the preservation of traditional ideas and beliefs that are important to the community, neighborhood and family.
