The Battle of Gettysburg Through the Eyes of Local Photographers will be offered on Tuesday, July 13, from 6 to 9 p.m., at the HACC campus at 731 Old Harrisburg Road, Gettysburg.
Although not as well known as national photographers such as Matthew Brady and Alexander Gardner, local photographers also captured glimpses of the town and battlefield in the months and years following the fighting.
Class participants will learn how the firms of Tyson, Tipton, Mumper, as well as many private cameramen, recorded views of the battlefield during the years it was being transformed into a national shrine.
Local photographers also recorded portraits of the people of the town who were caught in the whirlwind of battle.
Registration for this class and information on many other community education, professional development, and workforce training classes is available in HACC's Summer 2004 Noncredit Course Schedule available by clicking the Website below or by calling (717) 338-1010.
