HOLOGRAPHY WORKSHOPS . . . with Frank DeFreitas 2008 is my 25th year of teaching holography workshops at my laser studio/lab in Allentown, Pennsylvania. Here you will find a hologram class for all ages and abilities. It would be my pleasure to provide you with the very best in private, personalized instruction. I'm close to Philadelphia (1 hour), New York (2 hours), Baltimore (3 hours), Washington D.C. (3.5 hours), Wilkes-Barre (1 hour), Scranton (1.5 hours), Lancaster (1.5 hours), Reading (1 hour) . . . all within a distance that can make a great day trip. I work with each student/participant to provide the date and time most convenient to them for any workshop listed below. Your choice of weekdays (morning, afternoon or evenings), or Saturdays (morning or afternoon). Just let me know what dates work best for you -- and I'll check them against my own schedule. My open schedule allows me to book on short notice, so if you see something you like, let me know! Phone is: 610-770-0341.

The studio is a quick, non-stop drive from the New York (via I78), Philadelphia (via PA Turnpike), Baltimore and Washington D.C. (via I95 / PA Turnpike) areas. I am an elected member of Sigma-Pi-Sigma; the National Physics Honor Society; American Institute of Physics; for my work in laser and holography educational programs. I have also provided laser & holography educational programs for The Franklin Institute, Phila; Liberty Science Center, NJ; The Discovery Center of Science and Technology, PA; Lehigh University Physics Dept.; Lehigh-Carbon Community College; Georgian Court University Physics Dept.; The Smithsonian Institute, Wash. D.C. (Hirshhorn), the Urban Systemic Initiative (NSF); and many elementary, middle and high schools throughout the northeast region -- along with several National Science Foundation-funded programs in other areas of the U.S. I instructed the first online holography workshop program, for America On Line, in 1995. Please read the Holography Workshop FAQ FRANK'S WORKSHOP PLEDGE Offer my students the finest, personalized holography learning experience. To operate my studio in a manner that enhances the lives of the students and the local community. Operate responsibly with resources, and with good environmental practices. Create great holograms with the same equipment, and in an environment, that would be found by students, educators, amateurs & hobbyists. WORKSHOP PROGRAMS: Holography for Adults: Comprehensive Intro.
