Visit the exhibition Picturing Isabella, and see historic salt, albumen, and platinum prints of a woman who fashioned her own public persona. You are then invited to suspend time in silver, using tintype photography to create a nostalgic, otherworldly portrait of yourself. The artists of Evoke Tintype Photography will teach you the process behind this 20th-century artform and allow you to reimagine yourself as an inhabitant of Isabella's bygone Boston in your very own tintype.
Space is limited: Twelve spots per session are available.
