The season is upon us, and many are searching for a meaningful alternative to the shop-till-you-drop frenzy of Black FridayAdvent.

Come and create your own MONOTATION this Friday, November 27SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 28 at 10 am in Oakland’s Temescal District, at a live Ustream simulcast led by Spencer Burke.

Whether your camera is a cellphone, pocket, digital or professional SLR, bring it along with you to this 2 hour hands on workshop – learn by doing.

Spencer will kick off our time with a quick overview and vision for MONOTATION. Then we’ll walk the neighborhood with Spencer available for feedback(I’ll be available for feedback, pointing out possible images to capture). Then the group can share, learn and collaborate with each other on the word they may use for their MONOTATION.

This could be a great way to set the pace/focus for the holiday season and meet some creative people.

WHEN: Friday, November 27, 2009 10am – 12pm

WHERE: Meet at Pizzaiolo, 5008 Telegraph Ave., Oakland

COST: Free.
