"Create Your Own Custom Photograph Calendar"
Mary Louise Ravese, Bella Vista Photography

• Thursday, December 2, 2021 – 1:00 pm–4:00 pm

A calendar is a great gift idea to showcase your best photographs and share special moments from throughout the year. Mary Louise will demonstrate how to design and fully customize a calendar using easy-to-use online templates to incorporate your own photographs, artwork, text, and special dates. Then it's your turn to create your own calendar designs with her help. Finished designs can then be ordered online for professional printing by MixBook (not included). Calendars are available in three sizes starting at $17.49 each, and are printed on high quality, heavyweight paper with a smooth finish.

What to Bring

Bring a laptop computer and collection of at least 13 photographs to use in your custom calendar. Some calendar designs use additional photographs or artwork, so bringing more than 13 photographs is always a good idea.
