About This Blog
Community of Passion
For 35 years, the Maine Media Workshops has influenced thousands of people - many of them in life-changing ways. When asked what was the most important part of their experience at the school, some talk about the spectacular beauty of the environment, others praise the excellence of the programs, the world-renowned faculty or state-of-the-art equipment. Many respond by acknowledging the staff and their dedication to creating exceptional experiences.
The comment received most often, however, reflects what is created when all these essential elements coexist: an appreciation for the ability to completely immerse oneself in one's art and become part of a community passionate about creativity.
Like Maine Media Workshops, the MMW Blog is for those with a passion for or about photography, filmmaking and videography, multimedia, book arts and related media arts to share ideas, news, images, videos, exhibition and screening information, and calls for entry.
It's a place for classmates, faculty, and staff to keep in touch and for anyone new to the Workshops to find out about the magic that happens here on our campus and throughout our international community.
