Mini Portraits, Photo Walk & Editing Tutorial with Treats. & Samone Kidane of Black Image Center
About this Event

Join Treats. and Lore Leimert Park for an evening exploring our beloved neighborhood and learning from one of LA's brightest creative minds - Samone Kidane, co-founder of Black Image Center!


We'll:

  • Meet in-store around 6PM to reflect on how you want to see and be seen.
  • Get your mini portrait taken with our iconic bookshelves / stair banisters as a backdrop.
  • Launch from Lore around 6:45PM to begin our photo walk around Degnan, stopping at key points to cover things like composition, color, texture, lighting and *vibe*.
  • Return to the store around 8PM for a little editing lesson over wine and chats with new friends
  • Share out a bit about the experience and show the group our favorite edited finished product!


Featuring:

Samone Kidane , a self-taught visual artist who uses film and digital formats to explore intersectional identities, love and togetherness. She is also the co-founder of Black Image Center, a non-profit organization that aims to make photo and image making more accessible for young black creatives.


Alison Griffin , a creative, community facilitator, recovering perfectionist and the Founder & Program Director of Treats.
