Capturing the Magic: Picture the Possibilities

Welcome & Framing (10 minutes): Brief introduction to the photowalk, setting the tone for creativity, collaboration, and discovery. Share why photography is a powerful tool that transcends cultures, ages, and backgrounds.

Guided Photowalk (60 minutes): Explore the Orlando Convention Center and surrounding grounds. Participants will capture images of striking architecture, natural elements, and the aeroponic garden.
