1pm – 6pm
Free admission to the event with paid workshop.

Step into a slower, more intentional world this April as we celebrate the beauty of analogue. Travel back to the origins of photography and experience the magic behind the very first camera. In our Pinhole Camera Workshop, you’ll craft your own camera from everyday objects. Wander through our Second Shot Market, filled with secondhand cameras, vintage film props, and meaningful finds that inspire a more mindful way of living. Swap old pre-loved camera bags with a new friend.

Unplug, get hands-on, and see the world differently, one frame at a time.

APRIL ACTIVITIES
1) Pinhole Camera Workshop 
2pm – 4pm
$20 per pax (Bundle discount available)
Register or find out more about the workshop here.
Did you know you can turn an unassuming cardboard box into a camera? In this hands-on workshop, build your own pinhole camera using your own personal memorabilia and everyday objects, and watch as light itself creates images before your eyes. Discover the quiet magic of camera obscura, and leave with a deeper appreciation for how we see the world.

What to expect:
– An afternoon of experimentation.
– Slow down and be more intentional with what you photograph.
– Experience the darkroom where you will develop your images taken using the pinhole camera.

All materials will be provided. Participants may bring along an object which they do not mind turning into a pinhole camera.

2) Second Shot Market
All-day
Step into a treasure trove of secondhand cameras and vintage film props, each with a story waiting to continue with you.

– At Moments Like These
– Moving Earth

3) Jui Coffee
All-day
Refresh yourself with a handcrafted brew by Jui Coffee — the perfect way to unwind on a weekend. This month, bring your own cup and get 10% off all books and zines in our shop.

4) Gear Swap
All-day
Dust off your pre-loved camera bags, tripods, and other photography and filmmaking gear and accessories. For one day only, bring them down to Objectifs and trade them for something you can use everyday.

How does the Gear Swap work?

• Bring your pre-loved camera gear and accessories to swap for other items.
• This may include (but not limited to) lighting equipment, camera accessories, tripods, stands, camera bags, etc.
• All items must be functioning and not broken.
• Please note that all unexchanged items have to be collected back at the end of the day.
