Intrepid After Hours: Photography

Published: July 25, 2026; Aithor: Julia Sonrisa

Military veterans and service members can experience the Intrepid Museum after hours with a behind-the-scenes tour and catered dinner.

Join fellow current and former service members for a photography workshop on the flight deck, led by veteran teaching artists from the Josephine Herrick Project. Learn the basics of photography and improve your skills as you take pictures of the Museum’s aircraft collection. Then, continue the conversation and share photos over a catered dinner.

This program is for current and former service members only. For more information about the Intrepid Museum’s programs and resources for current and former service members and their loved ones, please visit intrepidmuseum.org/vets.

Note about materials and photography:

• Cameras will NOT be provided. Participants should bring their own device to the workshop. Any digital camera, smartphone, tablet, or other device with a built-in camera is welcome!
• This is a photography workshop in which participants move around the space independently, and may be in the background of other participants’ photos. We ask that participants understand this may happen and respect one another when photographing.
• In case of inclement weather, the workshop will take place indoors in the Museum’s hangar deck instead of on the flight deck.
