For the last few years Toowoomba has had a major Street Art festival each year in May.

It turns out this year will be the last time.

But before that was announced I was negotiating with Kontraband Studios (the organisers) and with the local branch of the Queensland Museum to run a workshop training in "heritage" photography - using a range of cameras going back to the 1920s.

It's taken longer than I would have liked, but is now up and running - should make the official website for Cobb+Co (the museum) today, and who knows when it will hit First Coat's website.

Now I know the training will be well beneath those here - if you can load and use a Leica film camera you are already reaching my training goals - but First Coat is a great opportunity to see and photograph interesting happenings.

A couple of shots from 2015

One of my sentimental favourites that I will try to dig up was of Graham Burstow snapping some people snapping the artwork...
