Are you ready to utilize the power of photography to explore your emotions, connect with your inner self, and embark on a transformative journey? Look no further! We are thrilled to announce our upcoming Photo Therapy Workshop - a unique and enriching experience that combines the art of photography with self-expression and healing. This workshop is the last part of the 'Program of Care 2.0' workshop series, initiated by the Goethe-Institut Myanmar. 

This 10-day workshop offers training in visual narrative storytelling and artistic photography techniques. Our expert trainers will provide one-on-one guidance and constructive feedback throughout the workshop. Each participant will have the opportunity to express their feelings and explore their self-identity by reflecting on photographs, pairing them with creative writing and focusing on the positive aspects of their lives. 

Expanded Curatorial Practice and Exhibition Making project that Goethe-Institut Myanmar brought to you has now finished all its training modules. At the end of the training period, all 16 participants became four curatorial teams, and a production grant for each group was awarded to produce their exhibition projects. Goethe-Institut Myanmar invited four art galleries, led mainly by young active gallerists and artists, to be project venue partners.
