Mysteries at the Museum
Join us for a truly unique photographic adventure inside the iconic Mercer Museum, a six-story reinforced concrete “castle” built by Henry Mercer in 1916. This Smithsonian-affiliated treasure houses more than 40,000 pre-industrial American artifacts, dramatically displayed from floor to ceiling—including a full Conestoga wagon and horse-drawn carriages suspended overhead!
We’ll explore the museum’s extraordinary architecture, its fireproof design, and its densely packed exhibits that offer endless opportunities for creative compositions, textures, details, and storytelling images. Whether you love architectural photography, low-light challenges, or capturing historic objects in artistic ways, this workshop is guaranteed to deliver one-of-a-kind photographs.
Registration Fee: $54.00 (Does not include museum admissions)
