'Sometimes it's very difficult to share something deep within verbally. But through an art form, through photojournalism, it's often easier to share something that's so personal.'
NAPA COUNTY, Calif. -- To go to college. To help those in need. To find a talent I'm truly proud of. To find self peace and allow myself some love. These are just some of the many heartwarming dreams written down by a group of Napa County students who recently participated in a workshop called Pictures of Hope.
"Sometimes it's very difficult to share something deep within verbally," Solomon told ABC7 News."But through an art form, through photojournalism, it's often easier to share something that's so personal." During Solomon's workshop, students are asked to write down their hopes and dreams. They then take their new camera and take images to represent those aspirations."We just need to show how these kids aren't dreaming for iPhones," Solomon said."They're dreaming for things that truly matter."
