Tumo hosted a two-month workshop focused on the creative potential of color in photography. Students took photos in diverse settings and experimented with various techniques to enhance colors in their images.

Workshop leader Anush Babajanyan covered topics such as color management, the use of light, capturing motion and framing to draw attention to photo features. She also shared editing room and field techniques which use color to liven a photo's story.

Students compiled their best material into a final slideshow presentation which included original street, portrait, event, and nature photography taken in Armenia.
