Ten Deaf children participated in a two-day photographic workshop with professional Deaf photographer Sophia Borick during the October 2011 school holidays. The participants were aged 8 to 12 and came from three primary schools – they took many photos and had lots of fun.

The children edited their best work using Photoshop in preparation for this exhibition, which will be on display in the DECS gallery 9am to 5pm weekdays from Monday 5 December 2011 to Monday 2 January 2012.

Come and see a different perspective through Deaf eyes.

Exhibition dates: Monday 5th December 2011 to 2nd January 2012

Opening night: 4.30pm, Tuesday 6 December 2011

Where: Dept. of Education and Children’s Services (DECS) Gallery. Ground Floor, 31 Flinders Street, Adelaide

RSVP: 1 December 2011 to 0408 807 511 (text only) or email sborick@internode.on.net.
