About this Event
Join the Alice Austen House at Fort Wadsworth’s historic Mont Sec House for an immersive experience with our aura camera to explore the energies of times past and present. Discover the colors of your own aura field, an emanation that inspired literary writers in the nineteenth century, such as Thomas Hardy in Tess of the d’Urbervilles. Alice Austen House educator Kristen Bartley will provide background on the history of aura photography as well as insight into how to interpret your own aura photograph. Additionally, take a tour of Mont Sec House with NPS Park Rangers to uncover the stories—and perhaps the auras—of those who once called this historic site home.
For attendees interested in having their aura photograph taken, sessions are $20 and include an aura photograph, a self-interpretation guide, and a limited-edition risograph print of a photograph Alice Austen captured inside Fort Wadsworth.
