The exhibit is part of an ongoing series in which PPRC Photography Project instructors from UMSL teach St. Louis-area residents photography. Those individuals then document their surrounding communities resulting in photos that are put on display at two locations. For this exhibit, participants included members of the Scribbler’s Art Club at Ritenour High School in Breckenridge Hills, Mo.
