The Anti-Workshop - Updated

In another post I talked about the idea of an all day photowalk through Boston starting in Roxbury and ending somewhere along the harbor.  I'm still planning on doing the walk, but unfortunately my schedule has quickly filled up and I am limited to only being available Oct 24th.

If people are still interested, I will be waiting at the Butterfly Cafe next to Roxbury Crossing Station at 8 am for a quick bite to eat and to chat with who ever shows up.  We will set off through Mission Hill, down Huntington Ave. toward the Fens with a stop at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum.  I have yet to visit the Isabella Stewart and have been dying to check it out, (somehow I always end up at the MFA). Please note that there is a $12 admission fee for the museum.

From there we will tour the Fens for a bit and then head over to the South End for the last regular weekend of the SoWa Open Market.  If you've never stopped by the market, it's a great collection of arts, crafts, fresh produce and foods.  We can take in the arts and grab a bite to eat before crossing under 93 into Southie.  Working through the up and coming neighborhoods we'll head towards the Boston ICA to take in yet more art.  Again, note that there is a $15 admission fee.

We'll probably hang out there till they kick us out at which point we can walk along the harbor for some sunset shots.  After the long day of travel and exploration I'm sure we'll all be in need of some food and drinks, so I'm sure we will hit up a neighborhood pub or something.

The idea behind the day is to network with other photographers, see parts of the city you probably haven't visited before and view some beautiful works of the artists that we strive to emulate.  Of course the idea is to have a good time, so the schedule and locations are always up to the group.  If we find ourselves enjoying one place we can always skip somewhere else, as long as the group decides as a whole.
