THE JAY MAISEL WORKSHOP 190 BOWERY, NEW YORK, NY 10012 (212) 431-5013 [email protected] THE JAY MAISEL WORKSHOP – “ALWAYS CARRY A CAMERA” JAY’S PERSONAL COURSE DESCRIPTION In the past I’ve gotten calls from people who wanted to know what the hell they’d be getting themselves into if they were to take my class. Fair enough, but if you want to know exactly what the class will be, that’s impossible because it’s a free form living thing that also depends on what YOU bring to the group dynamic. We will be in my environment, my city, my building. There are no rules. You will be sent out on assignments to shoot. There will be criticism of your work. You will be forced to look at my work (criticism of my work is optional). There will be demonstrations and endless talk designed to help you avoid the problems that plague you. You’ll be nagged into improving your images. There won’t be enough time to do all the shooting, editing, criticism, talking, and looking at my work that you’ll want to do. You will be overwhelmed. We will all eat together at different New York City neighborhood restaurants and talk about photography. Everyone will be shooting digitally, but this course is not about using a computer to manipulate your images. It’s about how to look for, see, and evaluate your images. It is most certainly not about Photoshop, which we will not discuss. You will end up a better photographer, if not a better human being. If this is not specific enough, please read the quotes from my former students. -Jay GUEST SPEAKERS We have been very fortunate and have had some fantastic guest speakers in the past. However, if you’ve tried scheduling any working photographer to speak weeks in advance you understand the problem… We make no promises about who you might encounter at any particular workshop, but you will be challenged and inspired. PAST GUEST SPEAKERS HAVE INCLUDED: • Greg Heisler • Joe McNally • Seth Resnick • Stephen Wilkes • Steve McCurry THE JAY MAISEL WORKSHOP 190 BOWERY, NEW YORK, NY 10012 (212) 431-5013 [email protected] THE JAY MAISEL WORKSHOP – “ALWAYS CARRY A CAMERA” EQUIPMENT LIST “The more equipment you take the fewer pictures you’ll take.” -Jay Students may bring any gear they are comfortable working with. The essentials are: • Digital Camera • Lense(s) • Compact Flash (CF) Cards • Compact Flash (CF) Card Reader • Laptop (with whatever software you use for editing and processing) • Laptop power adapter, camera battery charger.

THE JAY MAISEL WORKSHOP 190 BOWERY, NEW YORK, NY 10012 (212) 431-5013 [email protected] THE JAY MAISEL WORKSHOP – “ALWAYS CARRY A CAMERA” FORMER PARTICIPANT FEEDBACK “I have expanded and refined my vision, feel more open and confident about showing my work, and in a strange way don't take myself so seriously ... in translation I am more relaxed about the entire process and looking to have more fun. Strangely enough I think this has come from Jay's relaxed talking and his enjoyment of photography. I look forward to seeing how this wonderful experience will impact my work. Thank you!” - Louise Porter, Barbados/West Conshohocken, PA (September 2008) “For me this week was a dive in to the deep end of the pool and a test if I would be able to swim. I (think I) survived. I learned more in this week then in the two years at the Foto Academie in Amsterdam. Not all was about photography itself, but for example about people, art, color, seeing and New York. I really enjoyed it.” - Maarten Boerema, Amsterdam, Netherlands (September 2008) “What a treat to spend five days totally immersed in the world of Jay Maisel. His photography is amazingly diverse and inspiring. His home/studio/gallery/archives and magical fifth floor left me nearly speechless. I appreciated his no-BS critiques and "order" to stop doing what I was good at and move on to new photographic territory. The importance of rigorous editing (98% of my images will be crap, so get over it and keep shooting) and admonishment to always carry a camera are just two of many lessons or tips that have already sunk in. Did I mention I had a lot of fun?” - Char Davies, Burien, WA (September 2008) “The atmosphere and interaction was warm, congenial, and productive. The level of organization is amazing. Clearly, every detail was considered. From finding our personal 'flashdrive' attached to our name, to setting up our 'territory' on the available workspace, to the endless supplies of food, you guys left no stone unturned. Each day had a smooth flow. I look forward to repeating the experience in the not-too-distant future. Your commitment to making sure that everyone benefited was evident throughout.” - Louise Field, Salt Point, NY (September 2008) “The workshop was very well organized and executed, with each segment flowing from one to the next. More than anything, what made it special was the degree to which Jay committed himself to us, even though he's run so many workshops over the years, that one can't see how this could possibly be fresh for him. He really dedicated himself to making the entire week a success. This was an expensive workshop, but worth the cost.

  • Manhattan the Historic Districts Council Is New York’S Citywide Advocate for Historic Buildings and Neighborhoods
    A Guide to Historic New York City Neighborhoods B owe ry Manhattan The Historic Districts Council is New York’s citywide advocate for historic buildings and neighborhoods. The Six to Celebrate program annually identifies six historic New York City neighborhoods that merit preservation as priorities for HDC’s advocacy and consultation over a yearlong period. The six, chosen from applications submitted by community organizations, are selected on the basis of the architectural and historic merit of the area, the level of threat to the neighborhood, the strength and willingness of the local advocates, and the potential for HDC’s preservation support to be meaningful. HDC works with these neighborhood partners to set and reach pres- ervation goals through strategic planning, advocacy, outreach, programs and publicity. The core belief of the Historic Districts Council is that preservation and enhancement of New York City’s historic resources—its neighborhoods, buildings, parks and public spaces—are central to the continued success of the city. The Historic Districts Council works to ensure the preservation of these resources and uphold the New York City Landmarks Law and to further the preservation ethic. This mission is accomplished through ongoing programs of assistance to more than 500 community and neighborhood groups and through public-policy initiatives, publications, educational outreach and sponsorship of community events. Six to Celebrate is generously supported by The New York Community Trust and HDC’s Six to Celebrate Committee. Additional support for the Six to Celebrate Tours is provided by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and New York City Councilmembers Inez Dickens, Daniel Garodnick, Vincent Gentile, Stephen Levin and Rosie Mendez.
