"The PCPA photography workshop was great for my class to experience a realistic process, from ideas through to exhibition, with professional artists. As a teacher, it was insightful to participate in a project alongside my students and learn with them. I also gained a new appreciation for our town, as we really had a chance to explore the environment through a different lens (literally!)."

The Pacific Centre for Photographic Arts (PCPA) facilitates photography workshops and courses for people in regional, rural and remote areas of Australia and the Pacific. We advocate for personal and community development through increased access to photography education.
PCPA delivers practical, outcome focused experiences that are both educational and enjoyable, giving participants the opportunity to express themselves and their environment though the arts.
"Thank you very much for the opportunity to learn more about photography & help me see a different perspective of Babinda."
