Saturday & Sunday, October 1-2 & 15-16, 2022
from 10:00 to 5:30 PM all four days, in Felton

We will be open the first and third weekends in October, observing new hours: 10 to 5:30 each day. We forward to welcoming you view our outdoor photography display in person again this fall.

I will be showing new work from Arches National Park, Alaska, and the Big Sur Coast. Open Studios will be at my studio just off Highway 9 in Felton. You can come to Felton and just follow the bright yellow signs with "Marc Shargel" on them. Or get yourself a free guide to all 300+ artists when they come out in September.

Get all the details.

Learn to make photographs that are better than just "good snapshots!" Learn from award-winning photographer Marc Shargel in an eight-week class on Zoom.

"I've seen a lot of changes in Central California's ocean since I began diving here in 1978. I first took a camera underwater in 1982. Since then I've been using images to communicate the beauty and fragility of our marine life to people who might otherwise never know about it."
