Digital Media Creation for Seniors
Multimedia workshop at JAM – Junction Arts & Media
Discover the art of digital creation with Junction Arts & Media’s spring workshop for seniors (age 60+). Staff will welcome you to JAM’s public access studio space in the Gates-Briggs building in White River Junction, VT and share techniques for video production, camera work, story structure, editing, audio, social media content creation, and more. You will learn the tools you need to craft your own creative project, whether it’s a digital scrapbook, documentary video, an Instagram account to connect with grandkids, an original podcast or audio memoir, or other tools empowering you to tell your own story. Bring your own project ideas, or just come curious and ready to be inspired to create something new through the process.
Tuition waiver or assistance available on request, made in part possible through grants from M&T Charitable Foundation, Couch Family Foundation, NH Charitable Foundation, Jane B. Cook 1992 Trust, Jack & Dorothy Byrne Foundation, and Adimab LLC Community Grant.

“I came in with an archival goal, but I started having so much fun, I started making all different kinds of videos from my photos. I even sent an ‘mp.4’ to my son, who said ‘Wow, Mom!'” – Judith T.
“I really learned how to edit. I used to make videos for YouTube and didn’t care if people watched, but now people other than family are watching! I watched how-to videos, but I’m a physical learner. Coming in here works better.” – Lucy
“I wanted to get photos off my phone and learn how to make them into a movie. I never would’ve known how, and then I saw this advertised! Thank you so much. This has given me confidence. I’ve found my voice to share with the community.” – Lynore B.
