Explore portraiture through the lens of Camille Trautman in this free, two-part workshop presented in partnership with the Frye Art Museum as part of PCNW's Agent for Change 2026 series. This program expands access to arts education and celebrates the power of photography to foster social change in our communities.

The workshop draws inspiration from Trautman’s The North American LCD series, which incorporates the artist’s body within the landscape to explore identity, presence, and place. Participants will begin with an exhibition visit at the Frye Art Museum led by exhibition curator Alexis L. Silva. The group will then travel to Volunteer Park for a self-paced photography session exploring self-portraiture in nature.

On day two, participants will gather virtually for a supportive critique and conversation about their work. Each participant may select up to three images to be printed and presented in an informal exhibition at PCNW.

BIPOC and LGBTQ+ artists are especially encouraged to enroll. All experience levels are welcome. Participants may use any camera that feels most accessible – from a DSLR to a smartphone.
