Norwalk, CT: There’s no denying the power of a photograph and how snapshots are incorporated into our lives. Norwalk Now is thrilled to feature the talented storytellers who fuel our imagination, pique our curiosity, spark conversation and capture a moment. November 13-16, Norwalk Now businesses will be housing the works of gifted photographers whose work encompasses various genres and styles. This four-day visual showcase will include a variety of events, interactive activities and opportunities to meet the artists behind the lenses.
Event highlights include: headshots taken at a mini professional photo shoot with local photographer John Shyloski at The Spread. Have your hair and makeup done by Salon Etre; Snap & Cycle with Pedego Bicycles - learn how to take the best cellphone pics while on your outdoor adventures; “Through the Lens: A Veterans Photography Show”, a moving exhibition by the Veteran Artist Program at The Maritime Aquarium; capture your inner rock star and enter to win El Segundo’s social media contest; and get up close and personal with the photographers at several receptions throughout the week including wine and cheese with documentarian Olivier "O" Kpognon at the House of Katia.
Everyone gets in on the fun on Thursday, November 15 with the Norwalk Now Photo Booth. From 5:30-8:30pm, look for the Norwalk Now tent on Washington Street and have your pictures/Boomerang videos taken in the booth and post to social media.
