What unites nearly everyone who visits Madison Square Park is the feeling that there’s something magical about this place. Here, moments of beauty abound and surprise is everywhere. From enriching programs to striking art and horticulture, Madison Square Park is truly a home for moments that transform.
There’s nothing more striking than the juxtaposition of art and nature. You’ll see plenty of both in Madison Square Park. Since 2004, Mad. Sq. Art has commissioned and presented over thirty world-class installations in Madison Square Park by acclaimed artists ranging widely in practice and media.

Know Before You Go:
Please bring your DSLR or another type of digital camera that you use, a fully-charged battery, and the equipment that you can carry. You should dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes.
Each Composition in the Field class begins with a talk with one of our experienced instructors, and then you and your fellow students take a stroll through one of a variety of photogenic locales (in any of the 20+ cities the DPA encapsulates). There is street photography, magnificent interiors, farmers markets, zoos, landscapes, and more, photos of which are included within. These photos are a mix of student and instructor images in many different venues and cities across the United States and Canada.
You will have fun, learn to shoot strategically, get more interesting photos of the event, and walk away with a foundation to improve your photographs in the future, whether you’re traveling, or at a birthday party and everywhere in between.
Please note: If a class must be cancelled due to weather or other circumstances beyond our control we will be happy to work with you to reschedule.
