Texas 4-H JR Master Photographer Program & Ambassador Opportunities

Hey all,

This email blast is geared towards youth interested in the Photography Project. Below are promotional documents outlining the dates for the two upcoming Junior Master Photographer (JMP) workshops. The back page includes details about the program, eligibility, and expectations.

Also included below are 2 brochures outlining the JMP and Ambassador programs. To be clear about this process, youth must first become a certified Junior Master Photographer to be eligible to become an ambassador. There is no upfront application process for JMP. Eligible youth simply register for and attend the workshops. Applications for certification and ambassadorship come later for those who have completed the trainings and additional requirements.
