OCM BOCES Part of Newhouse School of Syracuse University’s Fall Workshop

More than 100 students and coaches from the Newhouse School of Syracuse University were on location in Liverpool, NY from October 13 through 16, 2011 to learn about and photograph the community during The Fall Workshop, an annual multimedia and photo project. Over the four days, students documented life in Liverpool through photographs, sound recordings, video and writings.

The OCM BOCES Lee G. Peters Career Training Center in Liverpool was pleased to be able to host a portion of the Workshop by opening its doors to the students and staff and allowing them to tell part of Liverpool’s story through BOCES. Two OCM BOCES students Tom Miller (from the Baldwinsville Central School District) and Queshawn Nuamah-Williams (from the North Syracuse Central School District) also had the opportunity to work with the Syracuse University students and coaches and learn about photography.  

Several pieces from The Fall Workshop have already been made available online at:
