smartphone Museum Experiences
Meet Me At The Met for The Museum as Your Playground to find your inner artist! This is a curated cultural adventure for #iPhoneauteurs, smartphone camera enthusiasts, and art lovers who want to get in the zone and make things happen, digitally.
We start the activity at the MET on 5th Avenue where you engage in a hands-on photo-art activity. While interacting with famous artwork, use your smartphone as a tool for reimagining and creating your own original mini-masterpiece.
Using your imagination and digital tools, you record, select, and edit images shot in the museum for photo stories, which include photo collages (digital art) and more. Photos are uploaded either to social media accounts and/or printed in books (via Parabo Press, Snapfish, or Adorama Books) post experience.
For the session Roberta Fineberg, artist-photographer and founder of 99Prints art site offers up an assignment for you, and guides your private group through a self-discovery process — providing helpful feedback and prompting discussion around what you see, i.e. composition, color, design, storytelling, etc. By the end of the experience, you have a Q and A to learn how to tell your own stories with a smartphone.
*The suggested admission to The MET museum is 25.00. The admission price is included in your session. In addition your ticket gains you same-day entry to The Cloisters in Uptown Manhattan.
