Northeast Ohio artists Shari Wilkins and Tom Hart will offer hands-on workshop where photography, storytelling and memory-making come together.
The classes , which will use Instax instant cameras and iPhone photography, will run 1 to 4 p.m. July 25 and Aug. 1. each date. Participants will also use personal keepsakes as they capture life along the historic Lincoln Highway in 2026.
The Massillon Museum invites families, teens, adults, artists, history lovers and curious community members to explore the streets of Massillon together, photograph the people and places that shape everyday life, and collect meaningful objects and memories that tell the story of this moment in time.
Participants will leave with their own personal time capsule to save and reopen in 10 years.
No photography experience is necessary. Students may use their own cell phones or Instax cameras or share provided Instax Mini cameras.
Fuji Instax cameras are instant film devices that produce physical prints in minutes. Film and supplies will be provided.
The “Lincoln Highway, Massillon & You: A Moment in Time” workshop complements MassMu’s “Driving Forces: The Lincoln Highway Journey” exhibition, which will continue in the main gallery through Oct. 18.
Register via Humanitix or by calling 330-833-4061. The workshop fee, $50 (or $45 per MassMu member), includes shared use of Instax instant cameras, instruction and film.
