This class will explore all of the necessary steps in discovering how the digital camera, computer and software environment operates together and how we can maximize our image quality with the equipment we own. The class will learn how and why RAW files, high bit counts and correct exposure provides greater excellence in our images. Quick weekly assignments and critiques will re-enforce the discussions and help challenge you to discover your direction.

The Salt Lake Art Center School of Photography is changing location. We are moving TO the classrooms at Pictureline (located at 307 W. 700 So. in Salt Lake City) from the Salt Lake County facility at the Utah Museum of Contemporary Art near the Salt Palace & Abravenel Hall. After thirty-six years, the County facility is being repurposed and the classrooms and darkrooms deleted.
Photography classes and workshops will continue to be offered, dealing with all subjects concerning digital photography. Our thanks goes out to Pictureline for making class space and free parking available for learning events.
All class schedules, workshop and tuition information will be found at this website from now on. Please visit here often.
The Salt Lake Art Center was founded in 1931 as a private, non-profit institution to champion contemporary visual arts in Utah. The Art Center was originally located in The Art Barn, near the University of Utah, where the first classroom and education program was offered to the public.
Over the years, the Art Center School has maintained its commitment to provide quality art instruction for adults through an outstanding curriculum in Ceramics and Photography for all skill levels. In addition to regular classes, special workshops covering various topics in both Ceramics and Photography are frequently offered. Regular classes run approximately 16 weeks, coinciding with the University of Utah and Salt Lake Community College semesters.
