'How do pictures work?' 'What is it like inside a camera?' Have you ever had these questions? In this workshop, we will create a camera obscura using a magnifying glass, paper pack, and some tracing paper to show how cameras work. Let’s make our own original camera with cool decorations! What do you see through the lens?
